Fridaygram: Maker Camp, perfect mirror, space hygiene

Maker Camp is an online summer program for teens interested in creating gadgets and software, offering daily projects and expert-led Hangouts, along with virtual field trips to places like NASA Ames Research Center, fostering a spirit of both DIY (do it yourself) and DIT (do it together) over its six-week duration. Participants can join the Maker Camp community on Google+ for free. Meanwhile, MIT researchers have made strides in developing a perfect mirror by using photonic crystals to reflect a specific frequency of red light, potentially advancing laser technology. Additionally, the challenges of space hygiene are highlighted through a video of Astronaut Karen Nyberg demonstrating hair washing in zero gravity on the International Space Station, reflecting the unique yet mundane aspects of life in space.
