NASA has asked a British chemist, a “Mr. Steven Pearce”, to recreate the smell of space. Apparently it is a cross between fried steak, hot metal and possibly the welding of a motorbike.
So, Mr. Pearce is creating the odour of space as a ‘perfume’. I’m not joking.
Proof that life is stranger than fiction.
