Let me guess: 3DConnexion's SpaceMouse?


I've used it for 3D CAD and seen it on The Expanse as part of the bridge crash couch props on the Martian vessels. They also used an older model of Black Diamond headlamp for the space suit lights in early seasons. There's a balance to be struck here - too much reuse of modern objects and it pulls you out of the action. I think the Expanse did it well.


Seen a lot of borosilicate glass from Bodum with the logo scratched off or covered up too.


It's funny how you mostly just notice the objects you're familiar with. If you look at the prop auctions you see all kinds of "regular objects" integrated into props and sets. Sometimes the really obvious ones mean that particular props have to be shot from certain angles (you don't generally see the bottom of a crash couch for a reason!)


Yes! Seen it on several bridges.
