Hi, I'm Jessica with another NASA fact.

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Do you know what a glove box is?

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000
Sure I do. I use one all the time.

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:18,000
NASA scientists made glove boxes to protect astronauts when they do experiments.

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,000
What kind of experiments do they do?

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,000
They study molten metals and protein crystals. They don't want to touch that.

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Astronauts have also studied flames inside a glove box.

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,000
They learned that flames are round, not pointed, in space.

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,000
I hope it can protect astronauts from smelly experiments.

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,000
It can.

11
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,000
The glove box is sealed to hold in fumes until the fumes can safely be carried away through a vent.

12
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,000
I wonder what they will study next in the glove box.

13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,000

Until next time, I'm Jessica with another cool NASA fact.
