Outer space. The words alone conjure images of high-tech gadgetry and mind-blowing scientific research - that is to say, the future.

Luckily, Recon Instruments has partnered with NASA Desert Research and Technology Studies to test two variants of its GPS-enabled Micro Optics Display for use in next-generation spacesuits, and get our space agency a wee bit closer to the P.K. Dick fantasy we hold dear.
