NASA at Home and in the City

NASA has put together this great mini-site showing how their research and development of different technologies has found its way into consumer goods.

The mini-site presents a 3D cartoon rendering of a city and a house where you can hover over different items and find out what NASA has done to bring that technology to your doorstep. It’s just amazing to see and read about how NASA has made life easier and safer over the years.

Browsing through the site’s content, I came to realize that NASA technology has more or less seeped into every single aspect of our modern lives. Name something you use frequently today and this site will probably tell you that some part of it had something to do with NASA.

Poke around, learn something, and be in awe of the brains over at NASA that are helping to make life just a little better everyday.
