Drinking in Space: Zero Gravity Cups for High Gravity Beverages

Monday, July 12th, 2010

When Don Pettit lived aboard the International Space Station in 2002, he became known for his “Saturday Morning Science” sessions, during which he would demonstrate really cool, simple microgravity experiments.

In this 2008 video from his second time aboard the Space Station, he demonstrates his own cup design that allows space travelers to drink coffee (or cocktails) in zero gravity.


I’m very happy to know that someone is advancing the art of space drinking. Cheers, Don Pettite!
