  • Photos of our time with the space suit here: www.tested.com/science/space/4...
    We've all seen NASA's white space suit that astronauts have been wearing since the Apollo missions. But what does an astronaut wear underneath that iconic suit's shell? We visit NASA to learn about all the essentials of extravehicular space wear, all the way down to the emergency diapers.

      Actually, there are restrictions when it comes to filming someone putting on a spacesuit. You can't actually film them putting it on because of international laws, so most likely it was not worth the effort.

      Much worse than just babies. Frauds and parasites is more accurate. The ISS is located (they say) in the thermosphere, which means these suits are subject to blast furnace temperatures. Unfortunately for NASA, there is no known material that thin anywhere near capable of that kind of insulation and protection.

I did not notice the Sun going less bright....so they must have had the blast shield visor down all the time? But I did not see them use it at all! Strange that. The storage of all their stuff...must have been a nightmare......can you imagine the amount of extra stuff that was blown away when they crashed the space vehicle into the Moons surface......How many millions of $s ....Oh I suppose about a hundred or so millions of $s.....money well spent there then!

    watched this because I wanted to know if an astronaut can get into a spacesuit with out help like they do in many movies. I guess one could get into it solo but would take a lot more time with less certainty they've put it on correctly and without leaks. They mention an assistant will help join the two halves of the suit once the astronaut/specialist is in both pieces. But spacesuits will continue to evolve.

      Geoffrey Harford I've since done a little research and the pressure needed to inflate these suits is only a very little apparently! From all the movies it seems people would explode but apparently it's more like a slow seep of bodily fluids! They were even working on some sort of fabric that just creates a pressure on your body without the need for a pressurised suit but upon further investigation I don't think it was from a credible source but interesting to look into.

    • @hedgeearthridge6807
      @hedgeearthridge6807 Před 6 lety +2

      Also, if you are in the buoyancy lab practicing, gravity is still there, so it will puddle.
      But in space, sweat from your legs would be in your lower legs, because it is hard for the water to float anywhere else in the suit.

    Ask yourself why they don't demonstrate what happens to a real human in a suit when inside a vacuum chamber. That MUST be one major phase for the testing. So why do they not even mention such a chamber, such an acid test? Not just here but ANYWHERE. You can't find such a video, despite the fact that the need for such a test is beyond obvious.

    • @cameronkaee

    • @stephandrake
      @stephandrake Před 6 lety +2

      Why no MENTION of a test? Nobody so much as says, "They're tested too". Why not? Because these ridiculous "space suits" are a joke. The pressurization issues in any absolute vacuum would be ASTRONOMICAL. And the temperatures would be higher than a blast furnace. But hey, no need to see what happens to a real human in a suit when inside a vacuum, let alone a super-heated vacuum chamber? Absolute hogwash.
      For a look at the incredible power of a vacuum, search youtube for a video of the pipe-lifting tool able to grip and hold 30,000 pounds. The ability of a suit to withstand such an IMMENSELY powerful vacuum MUST be one major phase for the testing. A vacuum would pull with the force of an explosion on every square inch of that suit. Not to mention the non-existent insulation and cooling system supposedly capable of keeping the inside of a suit at room temperature despite surrounding ISS thermosphere temperatures of a BLAST FURNACE

    • @bobmargossian3153
      @bobmargossian3153 Před 6 lety +3

      Stephan Drake the suit is only pressured to about 6 PSI. It's not really that big of a deal. Space 0 PSI, Suit 6 PSI.

    • @stephandrake
      @stephandrake Před 6 lety

      Bob Margossian: Think. Surrounded by an absolute vacuum, the force pulling at every square inch of a space suit would have more pulling power than the force of a street pipe lifting tool. And those tools are capable of lifting 30,000 pounds, ie. 15 US Tons. Search youtube for such pipe lifting rigs.

    • @stephandrake
      @stephandrake Před 6 lety +1

      Then search for the videos of a little vacuum jar with a balloon inside. What happens to that balloon is just a miniature, low-power example of what would happen to a space suit the instant it was immersed in the massive power of an absolute vacuum. Again: THINK.

    Keep in mind that the astronaut is also travelling around that speed. So it really would only be travelling at the difference in velocity between the astronaut and the object. Still, getting hit would be extremely dangerous and probably fatal.
