GH Mumm has unveiled a futuristic champagne bottle that fully complies with the certification requirements of France’s National Center for Space Research (CNES). This means that you can drink the contents directly in zero gravity, which the manufacturer demonstrated during a parabolic flight on Airbus.
Image: Mumm
The Mumm Cordon Rouge Stella sparkling bottle is coated with a protective layer of aircraft-grade aluminum. The cork is fixed by a special valve made of stainless steel. When pressed, a soft ball of champagne appears. Astronauts will be able to catch it with a special long-stemmed bacal, which resembles a plowed field.
Image: Mumm
At the same time, the liquid itself is stored at the top of the bottle and comes out as foam only when natural gas is passed through it from the bottom. This mechanism prevents the champagne from spilling when opened.
Designer Octave de Gaulle noted:
Of course, this project is very inspiring due to its high-tech nature and its 100% French identity, from design to production.
But it’s also very interesting, because the technology serves a larger purpose here: Champagne condenses the memory of terroir, climate, ancestral knowledge and taste sensations for all those who will evolve away from Earth.
This GH Mumm project is over five years old. The bottle was first tested back in 2018, but the final version has just been released.
Image: Mumm
The Mumm Cordon Rouge Stella will launch into space as part of the upcoming Axiom Space manned mission and will eventually allow astronauts to raise a glass on the space station to celebrate the success of the flight. The cost of the bottle has not yet been announced.

In Russia, they are starting to introduce an analogue of Apple Pay and Google Pay for Mir cards, which will work by generating a QR code on the user’s smartphone. Already on October 25, this method will become available for integration to banks, Izvestia writes.
Unlike payment via SBP, where the customer scans a QR code at the store’s checkout using a phone, here, on the contrary, a store employee scans a QR code, which is generated in the customer’s mobile banking application. Payment in this way will be faster.
This payment method will be especially useful for owners of Apple smartphones — this will allow them to pay for purchases again without the help of «plastic».
So far, it is known that Post Bank, MTS Bank, PSB, UBRD and Russian Standard Bank are planning to introduce this payment method. In order for the new technology to be widely adopted, both banks and shops will need to improve their information systems, and this will require time and financial resources.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured a detailed image of the «Pillars of Creation» — a collection of interstellar gas and dust in the Eagle Nebula, about 6,500 light-years from Earth.
Photo: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI
The Pillars of Creation was first photographed by the Hubble Telescope in 1995. The new frame will help researchers update their star formation models by determining a much more accurate number of newly formed stars, as well as the amount of gas and dust in the cluster.

Scientists believe that about 6,000 years ago, a supernova exploded in the area of the Pillars of Creation, which destroyed this cluster. Given the huge distance, it will be possible to see some changes from the Earth only after a thousand years.
The name “Pillars of Creation” was given to this cluster because the gas and dust in it are involved in the process of the formation of new stars with the simultaneous destruction of clouds under the light of already formed stars.
