A dreadful and humorous question for space astronauts.
How to get itchy in the universe
What if I have a itchy nose ? Too simple, just raise your hand to scratch. Even so, not everyone can do it, especially astronauts while wearing protective gear. A dreadful question for astronauts: What would they do if they had a itchy nose while wearing a tight-fitting protective suit and couldn't scratch it like a normal person?
It sniffs too much !!!!!!!!
Specialist in charge of NASA astronaut training, Robert Frost, said that in such a case astronauts could hardly do anything. But saying that is not without a solution, Mr. Frost explained that the protective suit has a device placed in front of astronauts called valsava.
An astronaut is using valsava to help relieve the itchy nose.
This is a very soft thing, like a small piece of soap. Initially this was used by astronauts to prevent tinnitus by closing the nose. However, from time to time it was added to the task of . scratching the nose . Specifically, astronauts often try to bow their heads forward so that they can "scratch " the tip of the nose or tilt their head forward to scratch a little cheek if you feel uncomfortable.
In addition to some specialized suits, NASA designers have added a piece of sandpaper in the hat to help astronauts . scratch themselves by bowing their heads a bit.
Robert Frost also said that NASA taught the astronauts all sorts of things, but they didn't think of an effective treatment plan for cases like biting the nose . He even laughed and insisted that he often taught astronauts: " You have itchy nose? Try to bear it."
