Past inductees have included energy-saving technologies, satellite and telecommunication technologies, practical commercial devices and health improvement technologies, including LASIK eye surgery, implantable pacemakers and hearing aids and many other devices that improve the quality of life for millions of people every day.
The induction ceremony takes place on April 6 in Colorado Springs, as the culminating event of the 33rd Space Symposium, a three-day conference attended by over 11,000 space leaders from around the world. The Space Technology Hall of Fame Dinner honoring the 2017 inductees will be co-sponsored by SpaceX, a space exploration company founded in 2002 by Elon Musk.
ActivePure Radiant Catalytic Ionization (RCI) Technology was initially developed by NASA scientists to eliminate ethylene gas onboard the International Space Station and has been adapted and enhanced by Aerus to benefit people all around the world.
Beyond by Aerus' ActivePure Technology has been tested in both university and laboratory environments, and also been used in numerous commercial and industrial settings that face particular high-risk issues. ActivePure Technology is engineered to eliminate contaminants in the air and on surfaces and is currently used in homes, offices, hospitals, daycares, hotels and professional sports facilities. It is proven to destroy airborne and surface viruses, mold, fungus, volatile organic compounds, and bacteria such as MRSA, E-coli and Staph.
"We are very fortunate to live in a time when space-age technology and innovation have such remarkable implications for us here on Earth. Since ActivePure Technology was first deployed on the space shuttle Columbia and in subsequent successful applications aboard the International Space Station, we have been able to offer ActivePure Technology in a variety of products by Aerus, activTek, Vollara and Beyond by Aerus to improve people's lives," said Joe Urso, Aerus LLC CEO, who along with Andy Eide, Aerus LLC Vice President, Product Development and Manufacturing, will be individually inducted into the Space Technology Hall of Fame this year, "the induction into the Space Technology Hall of Fame is a great honor and is a culmination of years of research and testing to bring this product to the people who need it the most."
