In my SpaceLab Entry, named the Klaus Capsule after Klaus from American Dad: I am proposing an experiment involving fish in space. It would be capsule in which a fish could use to swim around a space station. Please give me feedback whether it is good or bad and feel free to ask any questions..

Please in full screen or in large version if the text is not visible.

The aim of this space lab entry is to finally allow humans and fish to live alongside each other in the same environment. This could be the end of having them confined in a small tank in the corner of one's room. It would be achieved by creating a plastic capsule in which the fish could use to swim around the space station. Obviously the capsules should be cleaned and the 'oxygenated' water would have to be replaced which is why the design includes a hatch. This would also be to allow them to enter and leave the capsule.

During landing and take off, all of the fish would be kept inside a plastic bag aquarium- but when finally in orbit, the experiment would be conducted by leaving one group in the aquarium and allowing another into the capsules. I expect this would be good for the mental and physical health of the fish.

*THE EXPERIMENT DOES NOT HAVE TO USE A PLASTIC BAG AQUARIUM. This is simply a rough guideline while the most suited habitat is selected. At the moment the best candidate is the butterfly habitat with a few modifications such as replacing the air vents with a tube supplying oxygenated water.

I have been interested in space since the age of two- one thing I remember very well is the solar eclipse in 1999. I wish to be an astronomer and cosmologist when I'm older. Your vote would be a privilege and would bring me one step closer to that goal!

  • @nocureforcrazy In my video I mentioned the use of a plastic bag aquarium as a rough guideline so it can be adapted to the most suited habitat. I think at the moment, the butterfly habitat with a few modifications could be the best candidate... if it can hold water.

  • This sounds like it could be beneficial to us if carried out with strict protocol. You definitely have my vote, good luck! :)

  • this is a personal congratulation to Dewy Peters from 278TC. I have studied your idea closely and have found that it would work perfectly! Absolute genius. I can see that you will go a long way. I would like to tell anyone that is in doubt to the science behind the idea that with a little adjustment this would be an extremely beneficial addition to human science and technology. It would influence future farming in space. Once again Congratulations.

    it's a stonkingly good idea! 278TC

  • Interesting idea. Could work. Stephen Hawking thing I hadn't heard before.

  • JOLLY GOOD.

  • This is quite genius ;)

  • Nice dewy...

  • im voting for u dewy it seems rather interesting even though i hardly understood it but i think that is due to the small brain i have.....

  • Very interesting Dez, hope you win ;)
