Part of the Month: Colder Space-Age Medical Couplings

Made of futuristic, space-age polymers (specifically, glass-filled polypropylene) these Colder medial couplings are way cooler than either “Memory Foam” or “Tang.” C’mon NASA, where’s my hover-board already?

From the looks of these fittings and couplings, they most likely have been used in the medical wing of the USS Enterprise, by Dr.”Bones” McCoy himself. Dr. McCoy: Spock, I don’t know too much about these little tribbles yet, but there is one thing that I have discovered. Mr. Spock: What’s that, Doctor? Dr. McCoy: I like them… better than I like you. –Star Trek: The Original Series, “The Trouble With Tribbles” Check out: Engineering the USS Enterprise
