Here’s something you don’t see every day, a radio-controlled 9-inch “space surfer” that hovers in the air, spins 360 degrees, and moves left, right, backward and forward.

Capable of indoor or outdoor flights, the space surfer has dual propellers that generate enough thrust to send the device from a stationary position to 66-feet in the air without requiring a hand-launch.

The radio frequency remote control has proportional throttle and trim settings that allow it to be precisely controlled through climbs, descents, and turns.

The device is powered by a rechargeable battery that recharges via the included AC adapter. Remote has a 27 feet range and requires a 9-volt battery. Operates for 15 minutes after a 70-minute charge.

The R/C Hovering Space Surfer is available from Hammacher Schlemmer for $89.95.

For sleepyheads who have already tried dumbbells, puzzles, V8 engines, sonic bombs and other alarm clocks without success, here’s a rocket alarm clock that might just do the trick.

The launch pad doubles as mission control, where you can set the time and the alarm from the LCD display. When it’s time to get up, the red LED lights begin to flash and the countdown begins. 10 – 9 – if you wake up now you can abort the launch – 8 – 7 – 6 – you can still stop it – 5 – 4 – come on you space cadet get up – 3 – 2 – 1 – LIFT OFF!

If you’ve failed to abort the mission by now, your soft-headed rocket has launched itself across the room – and the only way you’re going to stop the alarm from sounding is by getting up and retrieving it.

The Rocket Alarm Clock is available from LatestBuy for $29.95.

Remember the ZFlyer R/C Astronaut from earlier this year? This looks like a mini version of that radio controlled toy, but this one is sold in pair.

The goal here is to hit your opponent with laser beams, just like all those battling helicopters that have been popping up in all shapes and sizes lately.

This Dueling Space Marines Copter Set gets you a set of two mini r/c helicopters with infra-red laser tag style battle action. Take to the air from the palm of your hand then use the shoulder button on the remote unleash a plasma blast your opponent copter. Each shot causes the gun of your space marine to flash with simulated gunfire. The first hit causes your enemy to spin. The second makes the enemy copter lose power… the third cuts rotor power completely as your opponent plummets to the ground and you gloat in victory.

Here’s a video clip showing the dueling space marines in action:

StarMurals are custom star murals painted in a five-dimensional format that resemble the real night sky. They are invisible by day and glow in the dark.

Just like the night sky, all of my stars move and “twinkle”…even my “shooting stars” appear to move…and they are moving. There’s nothing else like it… StarMurals are truly one of a kind.

StarMurals are compelling, intriguing, awe inspiring works of fine art. Each StarMural is a custom, hand-painted view of the night sky. No form of projection is ever used…each star is plotted and placed free hand. From constellation layouts to complex views from deep space, involving galaxies, nebulae, comets, clusters and more…each StarMural is a true original.

Just because you are walking around on Earth doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some of the awkwardness of being in space.

Grab yourself a pack of freeze-dried Astronaut Ice Cream ($6) and find out if astronauts also can experience a good ol’ brain freeze once in awhile. Choose between chocolate, vanilla and strawberry.

The Neapolitan ice cream is freeze dried removing water by lowering the air pressure to a point where ice shifts from a solid to a gas. The ice cream is placed in a vacuum chamber and frozen until the water crystaliszes. The air pressure is lowered, creating a vacuum, forcing air out of the chamber; next heat is applied, vaporising the ice; finally a freezing coil traps the vaporised water. This process continues for hours giving you the perfect space food!
