The Space Foundation announces a reward program, the Space Certification™, for creating a good or service that benefits the space program. The Space Foundation explains that much of the technology in use daily was originally developed for space exploration and later adapted to benefit lives on Earth.
With that information the Foundation announces the most recent company to become a Space Certification partner for its space-based technology is Liberty BioSecurity. The company uses a unique biological isolate obtained from a national governmental space exploration agency, and has developed an additive that demonstrates significant UV shielding properties. This additive has been noted to have broad commercial applicability including sunscreens, cosmetics, paints, bioengineering and other industrial goods.
