I gave him so much I couldn’t afford a t 😂

He’s a great actor. I just gave him the money to pursue weird projects.

Or a furry suit

Right. This place had like ten things it talks about and is a subset of the most insufferable of us from Reddit. It has a great benefit though, in that I spend vastly less time online these days.

It’s a house they can’t go to the gym. Honestly not sure why you’re body shaming a house.

I am joking.

You realise this is the internet and you can just not reply again.

Go away

😂.

Why would I hide that I used an LLM to summarise some history.

I’d rather you try and hide your distain, as frankly it’s boring.

Don’t know why everybody is hating on it. It looks like a house where people could express themselves. Pretty cool. If you don’t like it you can renovate and paint t your own

Well perhaps if you listened to the humans first I wouldn’t have to use an LLM to summarise the benefits of science to a layman or contrarian.

Think of all the ways the things they learn doing things like this will help in the future.

Here’s a brief overview of things that have already come from space exploration research.

Space programs, especially those led by NASA, have produced a surprising number of everyday technologies. These are often called “spinoffs,” and many are things you probably use without realising their origin.

Here are some of the most impactful ones

Health & Medicine

• MRI and CT scan improvements
  Imaging techniques were enhanced using algorithms originally developed to process space data and images from satellites.
• Infrared ear thermometers
  Based on infrared sensors used to measure the temperature of stars and planets.
• Artificial limbs
  Lightweight materials and robotics research from space programs improved prosthetics—making them more natural and responsive.
• Portable water purification
  Originally designed to recycle water on spacecraft, now used in disaster relief and developing regions.

Everyday Household Tech

• Memory foam
  Developed to improve crash protection for astronauts—now used in mattresses, pillows, and even shoes.
• Cordless power tools
  Early versions were created so astronauts could drill into the Moon during the Apollo program.
• Scratch-resistant lenses
  Helmet visors for astronauts led to coatings used on eyeglasses.
• Insulation materials
  Spacecraft thermal insulation tech is now used in homes to improve energy efficiency.

Tech & Computing

• Digital image sensors (CMOS)
  The same tech used in smartphone cameras was heavily advanced by space imaging research.
• GPS-related advancements
  While GPS itself is run by the military, satellite navigation improvements were accelerated through space exploration.
• Wireless communication improvements
  Satellite communication tech paved the way for global broadcasting and internet infrastructure.

Transportation & Safety

• Improved car safety systems
  Crash-testing methods and materials came from aerospace engineering research.
• Air purification systems
  NASA developed advanced air filters for spacecraft—now used in hospitals, airplanes, and homes.

Environmental & Food

• Freeze-dried food
  Created for astronauts—now common for hiking, military use, and even snacks.
• Climate monitoring
  Satellites help track weather, climate change, and natural disasters, affecting farming, travel, and safety.

A big takeaway

Space exploration isn’t just about rockets; it pushes innovation in:

• materials science
• computing
• medicine
• sustainability

A lot of these breakthroughs happened because space is an extreme environment, forcing engineers to solve problems that later translate into everyday life.

If you want, I can go deeper into the most surprising or “invisible” NASA tech you use daily—there are some really unexpected ones.

Yet but still if you superimpose the second image over the first you’ll see the whole planet had gotten smaller.

No shit. It’s already costing me £12 more to fill my tank.

Have all the opinions you want just fucking voice them and don’t downvote shit just because it’s not your preference. Or do I’m not your mum.

No i used disposable cards. Like the ones you can top up.

This is why I used to use a fake name at gyms. When I quit you can chase that ghost.

My climbing gym lets me pause membership for free. Done it’s few times when I’ve had pulley injuries.

Love how you get downvoted for your own personal preference. This place is wild.
