Apparently NASA has chosen a new space suit for our boys in orbit. (CLICK LINK ABOVE) Now I do have to say. That thing is pretty sweet looking. It's not baggy, Looks very clean and will probablly do a much better job than the crap we've been using recently.
Now on a serious note. Im sure the previous spacesuits our guys have been using have been wonderful. I mean NASA had their best men on it right? So why do I like this one so much more? Three reasons.
1) It's not baggy like the other suits... IE less likely to get caught on something and tear. For those unfamiliar with space decompression, if your suit tears... your blood boils in your body and you die a horribly painful death because of the pressure difference.
2) Looks absolutely awesome. Now being an astronaut looks cool, all the kids will want to do it. It also gives that kind of poster boy image to being an astronaut. You can almost see how they are going to stage photos to make the space program more appealing to kids.
3) Keeps our boys safe. With the advent of new technology they probably have something like aerogel in there which is AWESOME. If you don't know about aerogel i suggest you go find out.
Neways to infinity and beyond.
