Can Space Travel Make You a Better Person? (Space For Humans Transmission)

Описание: From Scott Kelly to William Shatner, so many astronauts have felt it: that transcendent sense of awe that comes from looking down at the Earth from outer space. It’s called the overview effect, and it might have the power to radically transform your perspective! But can we recreate this feeling without sending everyone to space?

At Space For Humans, we believe you don’t have to go to space to feel its impact. Join us for weekly videos from ASU faculty and students as we explore how cutting-edge space technologies are already transforming the world around us!
