Before sending Canadian company Carré Technologies'smart shirt on a ride to orbit, however, a lot of testing must be done to make sure it works as well as the Canadian space agency (CSA) hopes it will.

Nature News The global drive to eliminate the last pockets of polio infection is to receive a boost of more than half-a billion dollars from international donors.
Pockets of the disease exist in four countries: Nigeria, where polio vaccines were denounced by religious leaders,
The existence of residual pockets of infection is the main reason why the drive to completely erase the disease has failed so far,
yielding numerous discrete pockets of crystalline order within a larger, somewhat disordered polycrystalline structure. At temperatures above 1, 800 degrees Celsius and pressures of up to 15 gigapascals (roughly 150

Instead of climbing into a conventional bulky gas-pressurized suit an astronaut may don a lightweight stretchy garment lined with tiny musclelike coils.
and essentially shrinkwrap the garment around her body. The skintight pressurized suit would not only support the astronaut
but would give her much more freedom to move during planetary exploration. To take the suit off she would only have to apply modest force returning the suit to its looser form.
Now MIT researchers are one step closer to engineering such an active second-skin spacesuit: Dava Newman a professor of aeronautics and astronautics and engineering systems at MIT and her colleagues have engineered active compression garments that incorporate small springlike coils that contract in response to heat.
The coils are made from a shape-memory alloy (SMA) a type of material that remembers an engineered shape
Ultimately the big advantage is mobility and a very lightweight suit for planetary exploration. The coil design was conceived by Bradley Holschuh a postdoc in Newman s lab. Holschuh
how to squeeze in and out of a pressurized suit that s engineered to be extremely tight.

Once you put the suit on you can run a current through all these little features
and the suit will shrinkwrap you and pull closed. Keeping it tightthe group s next challenge is finding a way to keep the suit tight.
To do this Holschuh says there are only two options: either maintaining a constant toasty temperature or incorporating a locking mechanism to keep the coils from loosening.
For instance an array of coils may be incorporated into the center of a suit with each coil attached to a thread that radiates to the suit s extremities.
and pressurize the suit. Or smaller arrays of coils could be placed in strategic locations within a spacesuit to produce localized tension
If your suit happens to have sensors it could tourniquet you in the event of injury without you even having to think about it.

Spill a bunch of soda on your shirt and it bounces right off. The shirts are woven with a hydrophobic silica also known as silicon dioxide.
Self Cleaning Clothing With Hydrophobic Nanotechnology as the Kickstarter says might be a vague enough claim to cause some concern
but we've definitely seen similarly cool stuff with aerosol sprays so it's not too much of a stretch to think this could work with clothing.
How the shirt actually feels along with how long it retains its properties (the team says 80 washes) might require a closer look.
But it's designed by a former designer for the Vera Wang Collection and definitely looks better than a shirt with an orange juice accent stain.

Instead of a single layer Ever Dry is two coats. Engineers first spray a surface with a solution that consists mainly of xylene and butyl acetate.
Once that coat dries (about 20 minutes) they apply an acetone solution with small amounts of silica and other proprietary additives.
