Fake video. No astronaut has compared the two suits. In fact I doubt any astronaut has even tried both as they have separate starliner and dragon crews.

[@staunchlyspeaking]

Good point, and most likely true. I was giving this channel a chance but don’t like lying. “Many of whom have voiced their preference for the SpaceX spacesuit over the starliner counterpart” is simply not true. Will unsubscribe

[@f1kartracer147]

I hate to break it to this guy but this suit has been on the board at David Clark since 1995. I was a designer on the 1032 and the follow on 1035. I also did a bunch of the early design work on the soft helmet and the high mobility joints.

I’m betting it’s not trivial to the astronauts who have to wear whatever is chosen for them.

[@jaeluatl]

You are correct the Skylander is actually out of date in terms of technology and reusability

[@WG-tt6hk]

These are NOT 'spacesuits". They are "pressure" suits desiigned for the event of a UDE (Unscheduled Depressurization Episode) of the capsule. Same principle for the suits of the SR71 pilots (check it out). A "spacesuit" is designed for the space environment. Regardless, Space X has the better suit (in function & in style).

[@mweskamppp]

The new version from Space X is good for EVA. For transport to the orbit the old version is good enough.

[@2adamast]

Just me, but the space X suit looks to me like a movie suit made functional, the other like a fifth generation pressure suit.

[@mweskamppp]

@@2adamast Looks and function are two different things. you can not see how good a thing is, you need to test it. Up to now the astronauts seem to be quite happy with the quality of Space X suits so far. Operating them for some missions will tell more.

Both suits are pressure suits and not space suits. = They can not be worn in space. These suits are just to protect the astronauts in case of cabin pressure loss.

[@matarael]

SpaceX came out with their new EVA suit earlier today. This new one is for spacewalks.

[@kwichzwellbreck697]

@@matarael Yes they have been working on them for the private Axiom "space walk" mission where they will depressure the whole Dragon Cabin, open the hatch, expose all 4 Axiom Astronauts to the harsh grip of space and if I recall correctly 1 Astronaut will even leave the confines of Dragon and float out of the hatch on an umbilical cord. I am getting 1960ties vibes 🤫🤫🤫😆😅😅🤣🤣 Incredible that it took so long to do it again 🙄😔🧐

[@flipz8632]

​@kwichzwellbreck697 dude they're testing new technology they're not just gonna make something and immediately put it into service without any testing to make sure it's safe are you crazy

[@kwichzwellbreck697]

@@flipz8632 ?????? WTF are you talking about? There are two sets of pressure suits for ascent and descent what the astronauts are wearing for cabin pressure loss protection = the white/black SpaceX one and the blue Boing one. This is what we discuss here. AND THEN there is the new Space Suit SpaceX has introduced a week ago that is white/black as well BUT IS A COMPLETE different suit made for EVA which has to face the complete different problems of full contact with space. And since the Polaris Dawn Mission where 4 astronauts will be doing the first 4 people (private) EVA simultaneously where even 2 astronauts will leave the space craft (in turns) while the other 3 will stay EVAed inside Dragon is planned for in about 2-3 months ("this summer") it is safe to say the EVA suits are ready! So again what are you talking about? The SpaceX EVA suit is tested and ready and the pressure suits anyway??

[@0megacron]

Opening the space industry to private corporations is probably the best thing to happen to the space program since Yuri Gagarin's flight in 1961. Competition is what drives innovation. There will be hiccups along the way, setbacks, even lives lost... but in the long-term it'll get us where we need to be.

[@edvard5697]

Wow what startling news. US Astronauts like the SpaceX Dragon flight suits over the Roskosmos or Shuttle flight suits. Sure our crews would like anything over what or they had in the legacy systems. But how many astronauts that have flow on Dragon have actually tried the Starliner suits? And you speculate that the Starliner suits MAY be cumbersome at specific times. No proof just speculation. Both Dragon and Starliner flight suits need to be tested in LEO vacuum with a human occupant before saying something definitive.

[@bdgrandin]

All though I agree with the conclusion it’s premature to compare as the Boeing suit has not been used in flights yet. Also would be good to have same astronaut try and use both suits. Of course an astronaut is going to say the suit they have is great to the public they kinda have to as promotion is part of the job now that things are commercial corporations.

[@stuartwillard6558]

Exactly others can make a more objective judgement over time.

[@CrachOveride57]

That is cause the Boeing one is so far a Space Suit. While until proof of the contrary, Space X one is a crew suit that you wear inside the shuttle or capsule or whatever. The difference is huge between a suit made to protect you from a decompression inside a shuttle and a proper EVA suit. But don't take my word for it, look it up.

[@marklavoine8502]

You will never see An astronaut outside the space station with ether these suits there just pressure suits for the loss of pressure,not for a long space task.

[@bingsterc7621]

The only thing I don't like about SpaceX’s Space Suit is their “shoes or boots”. They look like rain boots to me.

[@colonbina1]

Yeah,

[@Caractacus969]

SpaceX suits look like they were designed by the Village People.

[@harrikeinonen7576]

Both suits are designed to do the same job: protect the crew upon take off and reentry in case of cabin depressurization or fire. Along with that there are ancillary functions such as communications, life support, etc. both suits are designed to be lighter, more flexible and comfortable than previous generations of suits. However, in comparing the two purely from what can be seeing in these videos, the Spacex suit would appear to have achieved better overall integration of all systems. Spacex’s design of a single umbilical that attaches to the thigh for life support and communications is quite elegant. The helmet is simpler and doesn’t require an additional Snoopy helmet. The Boeing suit seems to be very fussy. Lots of zippers, overlapping folds on the upper arms, two umbilicals on either side of the abdomen and some other cable on the left side of torso (no sure about this though). Spacex suit appears to be easier and simpler when it comes to donning and un-donning. Both suits are designed to NASA specifications for crew protection. It would interesting to know how they compare in this regard. Also, there might some non-apparent features unique to each suit. Again, it would be great to understand them. Overall it would seem that the Spacex suit follows Elon Musk’s design philosophy that the best part is no part. In other words KISS.

[@Alte.Kameraden]

I like how the SpaceX one looks very similar to some of the fancier Normal Suits from Mobile Suit Gundam. I mean it looks interestingly similar to the one worn by Banagher Links from Gundam Unicorn from 2010.

[@Nick_Morningstar]

Starliner's spacesuit is probabbly the equivalent of a wearable Boeing 737 Max.

suits are not made by Boeing they are made by David Clark Co. who made the 1032 LES and the 1035 Caps. The 1032 was partial pressure and the 1035 is full pressure thats what the large connectors are at the gloves.

[@ARUSApacecarHAMPTON]

David Clark Co. has a long history of making flight safety equipment dating back to the Second World War. The military has trusted their g-suites to them since the beginning of the jet age. They also build outstanding communications equipment with DC aviation headsets. I will definitely say Boeing didn’t go to lowest bidder on this one.

[@stuartwillard6558]

I guess it’s always a matter of aesthetic preference in the end but I have always thought the SpaceX suit is surprisingly something put together by cash strapped effects designers for a B sci-fi movie from the 60s, ie a poor man’s view of what a future suit might look like a bit like Hardy Amiss’s take on Air Stewardess outfits on the shuttle in 2001, a film otherwise brilliant I might add, but it perhaps deserved better than the Queen’s favourite and rather old hat conservative designer trying to be ‘modern’ which is how the SpaceX suit looks to me, did Musk influence it I wonder? Oh and it seems to make everyone look fat and to my eye far from sleek, esp that weird looking helmet that’s escaped from the Dr Who props Dept though if it works well who cares about the weird look. At first sight the Boeing suit looks far better, efficient, modern practical and fit for function, over the bargain basement put together ‘whatever mis matched bits we could find in the nearest costume store to look different’ approach. But hey I’m judging looks over the possible functionality so in that regard it might indeed be better, though I will take views from non SpaceX fan boy KZbin channels as well on that one so as to try to make a balanced objective judgement.

Good Morning. I don't think I like the idea of sealing the visor with a zipper. Zippers are prone to leak. What if it jams up. It can and it will. If and when it does. You're screwed. If they are going to make a suit. Don't seal it with a zipper. Great Episode.

[@flipz8632]

Yea dude the main issues is that you gotta he able to fit a whole host of life support systems in to a thin suit that inflated like a balloon but still be able to have normal flexibility at such high pressures and also you have to protect the user from high levels of radiation and keep them at an optimal temperature while half their body is heared up to 150 degrees and their other half as cold as -150 degrees while being able to accommodate the different body types of the crew its not something easy to design space suits are more like human shaped space craft then normal clothing

The atlas V rocket uses Russian RD-180 engines and those are no longer available due to the conflict and they only have 6 put away for this contract.

[@jonkienlen7332]

Why does the force of gravity change so abruptly when we leave the atmosphere?

[@wally7856]

It doesn't. It slowly lowers with distance from the planet exactly like a light bulb slowly gets dimmer as you walk away from it. Where the international space station is there is still 90% of the gravity that you feel at sea level. If you weight 100 lbs here on Earth and there was a "stationary" platform where the space station is - you would still weigh 90 lbs on that platform. The reason they don't "feel" gravity there is because the ISS isn't stationary, it is in orbit around the Earth. They orbit every 90 minutes so their centrifugal force that wants to fling them outward is EXACTLY the same as the gravity wants to pull them inward. Think of a merry-go-round that wants to fling you out and gravity wants to pull you in. Balance the 2 forces and they cancel and you feel weightless. That is why to get to orbit you have to travel at 17,500 MPH sideways to stay up there. Without that centrifugal force you would fall back down just like you threw a rock up into the air. In fact, that is how they get back down to Earth. The just slow down a little bit and that reduces their centrifugal outward force and gravity pulls them back down. Remember; it is Earths gravity that holds the Moon in place and the Moons gravity that affects the tides and the Sun's gravity that holds the Earth in place - look how far away those 2 objects are and their gravity still works all the way over here.

@@apocraphontripp4728 The shuttle's main tank was orange because that's the color of the spray foam insulation used to insulate the cryogenic tanks after a little bit of sun exposure.

ok so basically you're comparing the "style" of the suits ... great content ! So for reference, why don't you check out how mobility in EVA really works when you have a pressurized suit. You're literally a balloon floating in space. that's why Boeing suit has those bulky arms joints. SpaceX does not therefor REDUCING the mobility. IF you're gonna say that "it's internal" well I honestly doubt it cause they are so tight that I don't see any form of mechanism built in for that. Which brings me to the second point... Where the heck is the temperature regulation in SpaceX suit ?? For those (including the author) who don't know, when you're in space and exposed to light, the temperature climbs quickly and when on a shadow, it also drops quickly that's why Nasa an Boeing suit have those big plug. Those are for a water cooling / heating that goes through the fabric of the space suit. Space X ... lacking it of course... Once again, congratulation on mister Musk for delivering an half baked idea and fans of Space X thinking that this is the FUTUREEEEE. Spoiler alert, they'll select Boeing...

[@andromededp5316]

The crew dragon suit's umbilical port is on the thigh instead of the chest (or belly in Starliner's case). Also, the sun/shade exposure problem with cooling is relevant for extravehicular (EVA) suits, while both the starliner ans dragon suits are intra vehicular (IVA) suits designed to be worn only inside the vehicle, where solar exposure is not an issue. The ports are to plug on the life support system of the ship in case of a depressurization.

Boeing is a company that is failing on both fronts: aviation and aerospace. They desperately need to turn things around

[@otpyrcralphpierre1742]

SpaceX uses more input from the Bearers of the Burden (Astronauts) than Boeing does. Also, Boeing is so latently encumbered by past suit designs that it's legacy suits shows up a little in their new suits. SpaceX is designing their suits from the Ground up, so to speak.

Can Boeing engineers do anything right? Well, somebody graduates at the bottom of the class.

[@sleeplessstu]

While definitely futuristic, I’ve always thought the SpaceX astronauts look more like they belong in a fish processing facility, making cheese in a cheese factory, or even a Johnny Depp era ooompa loompa Candy Maker if you ask ME 😂

[@hackembacker]

Maybe space fishing and space cheese manufacturing are the future, who knows? And also Oompa Loompas probably were not magic creatures, but aliens from a planet where life evolved from sugar. Makes total sense to me.

Dude the space x suit isn't even a vacuum suit. You saying people enjoy wearing pajamas over an actual space suit? Yeah no duh

[@TaurusSpace]

Neither is the Boeing suit

[@EntropyConcept]

What do you mean by vacuum suit? If you mean EVA suit you'd be correct, but... neither is the boeing suit. They're both IVA suits intended to be worn inside a craft during the highest-risk parts of a mission. Both meet the same Nasa standards.

[@boone7777777777]

So basically it's not really apt to even call either one a space suit. They're flight suits at best. You don't need a flight suit though so really it's pretty pointless to debate which useless thing is better

[@jamesmorgan956]

You need to pay attention. You totally nissed the functionality and the changes for the Eva versions.
