This photograph shows the evolution of the bungee tool as it went from a simple, 3D-printed object to an increasingly refined tool designed to save astronauts time when they work with the bungee system in the Veggie plant chamber aboard the International Space Station. The bungee tool is utilized to manipulate the bungee cords that help secure vital parts of plant experiments on the orbiting laboratory.
