Astronaut shows off Microsoft HoloLens augmented reality in space
You probably thought you'd already seen the geekiest moments from the International Space Station (ISS). But astronaut Scott Kelly just upped the ante by pulling off what we think is a first: augmented reality in space.
Kelly didn't elaborate on exactly how he's using the device up there so, for now, we'll have to be satisfied with the incredibly cool image.
Nevertheless, based on what we already know about the $3,000 device, the HoloLens could serve as an important tool in the near future for common operations aboard the ISS, such as complex repairs while in orbit.
