NASA has hired a chemist to recreate the smell of outer space for astronaut training.

"Outer space smells like hot metal, fried steak and the welding of a motorbike,scientists suggest. A chemist is recreating the smell to help Nasa to trainits astronauts."

Heck, Park, that looks like an RM rating symbol on your crow ... I would've thought you'd go more for something like Eau du Ozone!
