Only 12 people have ever walked on the moon and they all did it within just 4 years of each other. Then, for the last 50 years, no one has gone back… but that’s about to change.
Soon, astronauts will return to the moon to prepare for people to live there long-term and to get us ready to send the first humans to Mars. But to do it, they need to survive outside in space and work for hours in one of the most dangerous conditions a human will ever face. The problem is, our spacesuits for the Moon haven’t been updated in decades! But now, to make this next chapter in space possible, space suits are getting a major upgrade.
These new suits will give astronauts the superpower to do more, for longer… and I’m one of the first civilians to put one on.
In this video, we’re taking you behind the scenes to show how Axiom Space is designing, building, and testing NASA’s new space suits. I am going to put myself and this suit to the test, to give you a sneak peak into what it looks like, what it feels like, and how it could change what humanity can do in space...

Fun Fact: As they said in the video "We don't make that many space suits..." is so true. My grandfather was a pilot, and was asked to fly one box for NASA, just one box, on a massive cargo plane. The box contained one of the spacesuits being flown back to Florida from the shuttle landing in CA. He and his co-pilot asked. "What? They don't trust us to fly them all back?" The reply they were given was "Its not that, we just can't afford to lose all the suits if you crash"

Risk management 101, remove the most approachable (easiest) risk elements first.

[@aserta]

I mean, if you think about it, it makes sense. One suit is not just an expense, but also a time consuming affair to make. You can't cut corners with these. They're hand made (for the most part, there's some expediency that modern tech has afforded them - probably, like laser cutting all the fabrics) cocoons that wrap one life. They're the one thing that can't be jiggled or tempted, because it's a life line. You cut costs for publicity stunts to make these... someone invariably dies. So the "cost" isn't just $ it's also an incredible amount of responsibility. They're basically more valuable than THE crown jewels (in some respects).

I was blessed twice in my life to operate in the NASA Space Station EVA suit for about four hours each time in the early days of designing, developing, fabricating and building the the Space Station hardware. First time at Marshal Space Flight Center in the Neutral Buoyancy Test Facility and later at the NASA Houston NBL. They were long days getting into the suit, acclimated then going into the water and working through the Timeline of events while attached to the end of the Canada Arm. At the NBL we were doing EVA operation on the Z1 Truss to Lab Ammonia Cable Tray working the tray and Cable Quick-Disconnects. We were also doing Battery Box ORU remove and replace operations. What an incredible opportunity to work with these fantastically capable engineers and techs and to later see how it all played out in space as the NASA astronauts assembled the real deal on orbit. Thanks to all the wonderful people who made this happen!

[@GlutenEruption]

For pee, they have a urine collection device and maximum absorbency garment, the former is basically a bag with a tube connected to your pee parts, and the latter is an expensive adult diaper. As for itches, the neck ring has a little pokey bit and something called a valsalva device - basically a silicone plug you can block your nose with to clear your ears - both can be used to scratch your nose or face but if you have an itch elsewhere, you just kinda have to wiggle and hope lol.

@@willythemailboy2 Wally Shira was the first astronaut to have a bad head cold in space and famously later became the spokesman for Actifed - one of the TV ads was him holding a bubble helmet and saying "can you imagine sneezing in one of these". It's on KZbin if you search 😂

[@icebearOP]

Its so fascinating to see that this tech will go to space, I can't even guess, how much effort it takes to design and make one suit. But I noticed some upgrades to this suit. 1. Give the option to freely use the hand inside the suit, means have a way to get the hand out and scratch any part of the body. 2. Have the suit more movable, means have very little restraint in the movement. 3. Suit gets converted into a space craft by sticking the hands and legs together and you become a pilot in human shaped space craft, you are fee to move inside that. 4. nothing else.

One of the lead designers of NASA's EVAs was giving a talk on Insider a while back, always referred to the suits as 'spacecraft' makes sense. Also from what she said it makes sense why they're so difficult to manufacture and why they were so advenced for their time! I'm curious as to how EVAs have advanced in terms of digital tech, because the original suits had some digital data readouts on the top of the chest piece when you looked down and these new ones don't seem to have them That equalizing nose piece is genius. You can't pinch your nose like you do while scuba diving!

It's crazy to think that the only moon exploration by humans to date was done nearly 50 years ago.

[@theplasmatron3306]

Yeah, because people were in a contest with the soviets and America didn't want to ruin their own reputation. I love all the analogue systems that apollo had, I mean you kinda have to stick with analogue controls, otherwise what if a solar flare causes all your systems to go down?

[@williamkash7162]

OVER 50 years ago. Apollo 11 was July 1969; Apollo 17, December '72.

[@Unmannedair]

Yeah, they didn't even have cell phones or PCs yet

[@Zeaiclies]

55 years since the first moon landing

[@MikkoRantalainen]

It's even more crazy that we still don't have a realistic plan for getting to Moon right now. Try video titled "I Was SCARED To Say This To NASA... (But I said it anyway) - Smarter Every Day 293" for more details.

When you started to move quickly on the treadmill and all the test team started to intensely take video and notes. I knew you were doing something special and they were getting new test data! Hahah
