40 years ago, Apollo 11 launched with Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Edwin “Buzz†Aldrin Jr. on board.
In celebration of the anniversary of Apollo 11, here's a collection of 21 space innovations. From astronaut rappers (I always knew Buzz Aldrin was a gangster) to space tourism, the collection of space inspired products is vast, just like: space (had to).
Implications - As technology and humanity's space aspirations grow increasingly complex, it's no surprise to see that more and more companies are moving to take advantage. The mystery and the beauty of space is something that simultaneously fascinates and inspires many consumers, and companies can tap into that enthusiasm by embracing this unexplored frontier and its aesthetic.
