Where's the pocket for my phone?
Crumpus
Not enough bells and whistles, absolutely no bits or bobs, and an astonishing lack of hoses going everywhere 6/10 still looks cool
TherealGuyLeDouche
I want one
ThomasTheWankEnglne
Show me the space sex suit and I'll be interested.
darkunited
Looks straight out of a movie
SupaCabra
it's sleek. but it's form over function. if I'm going to space I want to spacewalk
Xenolith166
It's an emergency depressurization suit, not full-on EVA
Contundo
Is it good for EVA?
Xenolith166
It's more like an emergency depressurization suit, for if like a micrometeorite punches a hole in the vessel and you want to not die
Canopus
no its only a for launch and landing.
UrKungFuNoGood
doubtful EVA is bulky because it has to be pressurized and insulated
Contundo
We have very good insulators nowadays, aerogel, to mention one. i suspect it is the outer shell that is challenging to get right.
imgoingtoforgetthisusername
waay cooler than NASA's. Take that, govmint!
Gunboss98
But you can EVA with NASA's big bulky suit. That's why it's big and bulky
SendingThoughtsAndPrayers
Nasa's is a classic, c'mon.
LoZCollector
I'll grant you it's a classic and they laid important groundwork, but it's time to move on.
SendingThoughtsAndPrayers
you can move on while still appreciating the design. =P just like an old caddy or mustang
LoZCollector
True dat. And it's not like this thing is rated for EVAs anyway, so there's still a purpose for the old ones.
