Package design developed for space travel is neat, if a little less exciting than you thought it'd be

By Rain Noe - October 27, 2009

One area where I didn't expect to see trickle-down space-based technology was in package design. But a company called GoGo squeeZ is actually using packaging originally designed for astronauts to deliver "no-mess applesauce." The squeezepack's re-sealable cap doubles as a built-in straw, and while squeezing smashed apples into your mouth might seem somewhat undignified, it's a damn sight better than writing upside down and underwater with a little silver pen.

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.
