Your Complete Reference Guide to Memory Foam Mattress

The memory foam mattress that you may be using now to fall into a deep slumber had a very interesting origin. Would you like to know how come someone thought of that concept? Or you may not have the time to think about it because once your body lies on the bed, you instantly doze of because of the comfort that this type gives you.

Did you know that the memory foam was first used in a spacecraft? The reason for this was actually far from getting the spacecraft's passengers to fall asleep. No, it didn't aim for the astronauts to have a good night's rest in space. They were not sent there in the first place only to find out if it's possible to do so considering the environment.

It was used by NASA to protect the carrier and the astronauts inside from the vast buildup of the G force that it would endure during the liftoff process. The foam was specifically used by NASA because such foam softens and shapes accordingly to the human body when exposed to heat and the weight of people. It acts like a cocoon that protects everyone aboard from the tremors and everything else that may be experienced during the process.
