STEMonstrations: Area and Volume

Astronauts Megan McArthur and Aki Hoshide discuss how engineers designed the U.S. Destiny module so that every cubic inch of volume is used efficiently. Astronauts give a tour of the orbiting module aboard the International Space Station and discuss how engineers use area and volume calculations to strategically design how the space is used in microgravity.
