Astroglide Astro Glide
Astroglide is a brand of personal lubricant marketed to "enhance intimate activities". it is manufactured by BioFilm Inc of Vista, California.
The inventor of Astroglide, Daniel Wray, formulated it while working on the cooling system of a space shuttle at Edwards Air Force Base in 1977. Wray said he was "trying to remove the oil from anhydrous ammonia and I ended up with this substance". This association with aerospace was responsible for the name of the brand. The name "Astroglide" was originally licensed to a small company in North Hollywood (in 1982). When the company failed in 1991, Wray was able to obtain the rights to the name.
