bruno banani Space Proof "MIR Mission"
On 15 May 1998, bruno banani became the world's first manufacturer
of designer underwear to carry out the first function test
in weightless conditions on board the Russian space station
MIR with the "Your Dynamic Underwear" collection. The main
aim of this unique fit and comfort test mission was to carry
out really tough material and load tests so that the collection
could be awarded the rating "Space Proofed". On 13 August
1998 it was finally time. On board the famous Soyuz rocket
in Baikonur, Kazakhstan, bruno banani set off for the MIR
space station. Flying time: 48 hours. Chief flight engineer
Nikolai Budarin began the tests immediately. He tested the
collection during his daily fitness programme in the MIR base
module at 90% relative air humidity. No other results were
expected: the elasticity and dynamic fit of the collection
impressed him tremendously. |
