For the people who know space hardware doesn’t stay clean.
🧪 Product Overview
The Space Is Dirty™ Hat is for scientists, engineers, and space enthusiasts who live in simulated space environments — where regolith gets everywhere and testing is never pristine.
Featuring a clean SRT logo on the front and the phrase “Space Is Dirty” embroidered on the back, this hat is a subtle signal to anyone who understands what high-fidelity testing really looks like. It represents confidence earned through regolith simulant testing, ISRU development, and real hardware validation.
This isn’t generic space merch.
It’s for people who do the work.
🚀 What “Space Is Dirty” Stands For
This phrase isn’t a joke — it’s a truth.
Space Is Dirty represents:
-
Regolith that abrades, clogs, and coats everything
-
Hardware testing that embraces reality instead of ideal conditions
-
High-fidelity simulants used to reduce mission risk
-
ISRU systems designed for harsh, dusty environments
-
Innovation grounded in physics, geology, and material science
If you’ve tested hardware in a simulant bin, a lunar testbed, or a planetary analog environment — this hat speaks your language.
🧑🚀 Who This Hat Is For
Perfect for:
-
ISRU engineers and researchers
-
Scientists working with regolith simulants
-
Space hardware developers and test engineers
-
Planetary surface systems teams
-
Students and professionals pursuing careers in space resources
-
Anyone who understands why accurate simulants matter
It’s instantly recognizable to people who know what regolith simulant is — and completely unnoticed by those who don’t.

🔬 Why It Matters
Dust is part of the mission.
Testing is where confidence comes from.
And hardware only flies if it survives the worst-case environment first.

-
Don’t underestimate lunar or Martian dust
-
Design for abrasion, contamination, and wear
-
Value test results over assumptions
-
Build systems meant to operate on the Moon, Mars, and beyond
