“Wi-Fi didn’t really exist when they first started developing the space station, not the way it does today,” said new board member Anthony Colucci. “Wi-Fi that’s capable, equipment that’s capable to fly in space doesn’t exist. You can’t take the Wi-Fi box you buy down at Best Buy and take it up on a space station and expect it to work. It won’t. So you have to design it and build it, especially for that environment.”
