Top 30 Science Innovations in November

From Human Gesture Device Controls to Next-Gen Spacesuits

— November 23, 2019 — Tech
These November 2019 science innovations range from next-generation spacesuit designs to human gesture device controls.

When it comes to space-age innovations, the month's most notable examples include NASA's decision to collaborate with third-party companies to produce its spacesuits in the future. In addition to potentially saving the space agency on cost, the decision may help the organization work with other companies to equip spacesuits with new technology and hardware they did not feature in the past.

Additional November 2019 science innovations include Arianespace's rocket rideshare pilot project which aims to make rocket rides to the moon a reality as close as the year 2023. The company is currently planning on using its Ariane 6 rocket for the rides and is on the hunt for prospective consumers who would invest in a trip.
