GADGETS FROM SPACE

● Omega Speedmaster

Certified by NASA for all manned space missions in 1965 – the only watch to receive that distinction – the Omega Speedmaster was worn on the Moon by Buzz Aldrin.

● Apple iphone 4

Apple doesn’t just make its gadgets in Space Grey: in 2011 it sent a couple of iphones up to the International Space Station to go with the ipods they already had on board.

● Asus P6100

In 1997 a pair of Asus P6100 laptops were chosen to be used on Russia’s Mir space station, spending more than 600 days in orbit without falling to the dreaded blue screen of death.
