Space stations are loud — that's why NASA is making a quiet fan.

The International Space Station is a remarkable feat of engineering, but living on it for months can be challenging due to limited space, lack of privacy, and difficulty performing everyday tasks in a zero-gravity environment. One often overlooked aspect is the sound, which can be overwhelming due to the constant hum of fans keeping life support systems cool. To address this, NASA researchers have developed a new fan design that reduces noise by 10 decibels compared to similar-sized commercial fans. The Quiet Space Fan aims to improve communication, reduce risk of hearing loss, and create a more comfortable environment for astronauts.
