Smell of UNIVERSE!!!

"Incomparable. It smells like nothing on Earth. I hope you understand, I am not talking about the smell of the capsule, or the spacesuit. I am talking about the universe. I know this is impossible. You can't smell the vacuum of space. But strangely all cosmonauts say the same thing. We all long for this peculiar metallic smell. It's hard to explain. Perhaps it's particular gases, or particular ions that change their structure in the vacuum. It's fascinating." -cosmonaut Sergei Krikalyov


“My colleagues told me about this scent, but I could not understand what it was until I felt it… I thought it was smell of metal, but the cosmonauts came back from the space walk with the same smell on their suits… So, I can say the space (or the environment around the station) smells” -ISS commander Alexander Skvortsov.
