Abstract
During the last years the interest of the people and scientists to the planets of Solar system and far space objects with relation to the search of potential exoplanets is increasing constantly. One of the reasons is that space missions are more and more oriented to the possible colonization of near-field space bodies. Among all engineering problems of exploring the properties of the space objects one is very exciting. This is related to the properties adapted to the human feelings and senses. More people are interested to the properties available to our senses like smell, taste, dactylic sensations, sounds, etc. Most of these feelings are adapted to the Earth’s atmosphere and humans’ evolution of senses. The question is – how the human being with its senses will have feelings on the space bodies? The complicated engineering solutions can transform the chemical components and physical properties of the space objects, obtained by different remote sensing methods and spacecraft’s missions to the familiar to humans’ feelings. This short presentation is targeted to the description about some organoleptic properties of the space objects (taste, smell, sounds), including as well such subjective feeling like “beautifulness”. The analysis shows that the nice-looking space bodies frequently are not very hostable to the humans. Even more – they are really dangerous for the potential visitors.
