development of technologies

We’ve all been bombarded in recent years a steady stream of new technologies, smart phones, flat screens for computers and other devices that we have come to rely in our daily lives. However, people nowadays seem to think they are dealing with the latest technologies that are displayed. However, there is a new invention is being tested by astronauts on Atlantis, and not all users will probably be empty and buy. It is a device that filters urine and it becomes a sports drink.

If you’re like most people, you probably think: “Foo!” Who wants to drink urine, even if it is filtered? You’ve probably heard or read stories of unfortunate people who were trapped without water and are forced to drink their own urine, but it is not an option, most of us would like to think. Space program, but look to the future. Currently, human waste in space, or returned to earth to be destroyed or thrown in the air, where they are rapidly absorbed gas. The astronauts are hoping that the development of technologies to filter the urine into something you can drink will help solve the problems in the future, enough water to survive.

Currently astronauts try to fair treatment of dirty water. They want to know if the simple devices actually work in weightlessness. They do not drink the results. Existing systems for filtering water on the ship and the ISS needs electricity to operate, and electricity is not readily available in space. The new devices use advance the process of osmosis, the astronauts tested to ensure that the process really works. More research must be conducted to determine whether the effect of the water is potable, and if the production of liquid will be accepted.
