Astronauts face a multitude of overwhelming challenges in the unforgiving environment of space and dealing with uncomfortable and irritated skin should ideally be the last of their concerns—which is how Cosmology came to be.
The unique conditions of space travel, such as low humidity and the constant circulation of recycled air, often means that astronauts find themselves contending with burning, itchy, dry and sensitive skin. As such, the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency put out a call for skincare solutions that could be used in the resource-scarce, low-gravity environment. Japanese cosmetic company POLA and ANA Holdings answered the call and soon, products from the Cosmology Space Crew Kit will be available for the public to purchase. There's a wipe-off face wash, as well as a lotion that remains in a semi-solid state to avoid scattering in space.
