Evolution Of The Modern Spacesuit [4K] | Zenith | Spark

It is essential to have a fully functional spacesuit to carry out any mission that has humans going beyond our atmosphere, and with that comes a series of design challenges. How does the modern spacesuit come to be? Explore the history and evolution of modern spacesuits and the challenges that scientists have to overcome in order for humankind to travel to the unknown.

Been fascinated with spacesuits since I was a young lad in the era of Mercury, Gus Grissom being my hero in it all, and I was deeply saddened when he died unnecessarily. Besides the marvellous spacesuits depicted in 2001 a Space Odyssey, I loved the flashy Mercury suits right through to Apollo and would like to see pics and commentary on the new and proposed designs of the Moon and Mars suits

I hear you Australian accent threw your text brother I love it 😂😂

[@Leo.Wirabuana]

I prefer ORLAN suits. never gets old.

I'll tell you the shuttle launch was something everyone needed to see up close every time the shuttle launched I could hear the star-spangled banner playing in my head I saw a nighttime launch from a three-story building in Daytona beach it was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen besides my son being born. It was a clear night and the cloud made by the shuttle's engines just hung in the air from the surface of cape Canaveral no. 39 launch pad to lower orbit of the earth's atmosphere a long arch of red cloud turning orange as it came out of the shuttle. Just a stunning sight! One of the best memories, even the angels will go WOW as they watch my memories as my life flashes before me and them ha ha ha .With a memory like that they my forget to judge me at least for just a moment !

Whoa perfect timing

It’s amazing that we have the technology to put humans in space but we also have the technology so humans don’t have to go into space

[@jamesmitchell9872]

I feel like space missions should have ALWAYS been a joint effort between counties and not competition. We are of the same spiecies....so the best technology should have always been shared for human safety no matter where it came from. I would imagine this may be the way it is now...if not it should be.

[@chrissartain4430]

I love this stuff.

[@Agent77X]

SpaceX already has a spacesuit!

[@Jan_Strzelecki]

No, they have what this video is talking about in the first half. It's only meant to be worn inside the spacecraft, for emergencies.

[@johnsoncityaerialphotograp7201]

I always wonder how far someone in a pressure suit and a “flying squirrel” wing suit could glide from ultra high altitude? Hundreds of miles? Who knows..

[@deforged]

if re-entering from space I think the burn up due to the earths rotation would make cut the flight duration rather short.
you might remember from a few years someone did a pressurized suit jump from a balloon lifted capsule. because that jump was going along with earths rotation burn up didn't come up as an issue, although he did break the speed barrier. in that freefall however i do recall that he came close to losing control.

[@cmv2]

This I'd love to see!! Sounds pretty cool.

[@WilliamSmith-fs9zq]

Can you provide more detailed information on the current spacesuits?

[@davereid-daly2205]

Great Video, Thanks !!!

[@mrs6968]

I loved this

[@olddecimal2736]

Beautiful soundtrack

[@ninetwenty]

Great info. annoying music....loud and distracting

[@mizzshortie907]

Agreed

[@SomeUserInternet]

Why there is a UNICEF fundraising link here? What it has to do with Spacesuit?

[@Maine307]

the X15 reached Mach 9.1 at 66 miles above ground altitude..

[@wringworming6977]

Guys I got a blumpkin last night !!!

[@jastark22181]
