His near four-decade career has involved smelling objects from technical handbooks to astronauts personal things. Its crucial that all items taken aboard the Internation

9、al Space Station (ISS) are odorless. Since astronauts are allowed to bring personal items aboard, all their objects must be checked before leaving Earth. In a video provided by Science Channel, Aldrich relates a specific occasion when an astronaut wanted to build a ship in a bottle in space. Everyth

10、ing in the ship-building process had to be sniffed right down to the glue. Aldrich and his team are responsible for making sure that objects are not only odorless but also harmless to astronauts. When the ISS heats up, a process called off-gassing occurs, which means chemicals flow out from certain

11、substances. Objects that would be safe on Earth could give off unpleasant odors or become dangerous when exposed to high temperatures in the ISSs unique environment. Of course, humans arent the only testers or the first to be exposed to potentially dangerous objects. Before Aldrich puts his nose nea

While something could be technically fine, it could be smelly to an astronaut. Aldrichs nose is not alone there. He is the head of a hard-snif

13、fing team of smell testers. Together they smell each object and rate it on a scale(等级) of 1 to 4. According to NASA, I cannot be detected, and 4 is considered not bearable.

18、h school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordons students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think theyre close to a solution.
