This is a close-up of the sleeve and gloves of Canadian astronaut Bob Thirsk, seen during a training session for the Soyuz TMA-15 flight in 2009. ESA astronaut Frank De Winne was seated next to Thirsk in the Soyuz simulator, supervised by their commander, Russian cosmonaut Roman Romanenko.
On 27 May 2009, Soyuz TMA-15 was launched to the International Space Station starting De Winne's six-month OasISS mission. De Winne and Thirsk were members of the first six-person ISS Expedition crew. Later in this mission, De Winne also became the first European to become the ISS Commander.

September 13th, 1999, is the day that the fictional Moonbase Alpha and all of its astronauts were carried off into deep space, riding a lunar rocket after the nuclear waste dumps on Farside exploded!
A promising (if scientifically dodgy) premise that never quite lived up to its epic sounding scenario but still delivered some pretty good television entertainment between 1975 and 1977.
The British sci-fi series was Gerry & Sylvia Anderson's last live action television collaboration and at least in part was initially intended to be a sequel to their covert alien invasion show, "UFO".
I recall being rather fond of it at the time, mostly because of the excellently realised model hardware, orchestral score and the brilliant costumes, even the silly ones worn by many of the exotic special guest 'aliens', played by a splendid parade of notable actors and actresses.
It didn't move me to collect much material from it, though I do remember the giveaway cards they included in packets of bread when the show launched in Australia. Quite what the connection was, I don't know; perhaps it was something to do with the lunar crust.
There were some fine spin-off novelisations by Edwin Charles Tubb that successfully made some kind of sense of it all and even managed to brings things to a relatively satisfying conclusion.
Many of the plots in Season One had their fuzzy metaphysical side, which, me being me, didn't appeal to me at all, though at least those stories were more cerebral than the artificially pumped up 'all action' episodes of Season Two, which were generally a bit of a let down.
There, is, by the way, precedent in the series for the characters standing on the naked surface of the moon without their spacesuit helmets on....
Rather more fun is the fact that real astronauts DID stroll on the moon and sensibly opted to keep breathing so they could sing about it....

Although I couldn't resist filching the popular "Lord Of The RIngs" internet meme, "One does not simply stroll into Mordor" for the caption. Perhaps it should be "Memebase"?
The male and female leads appear in the picture, that's Doctor Selene Russell alongside actor Martian Landau, of course.

Mission insignia patch on the spacesuit worn by Dave Scott during the Apollo 15 lunar landing in July 1971. On display at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C.
Fashion designer Emilio Pucci was asked to design the patch. Scott was the one who approached him. Pucci came up with the idea of three highly stylized "birds" in blue and green on a square patch. The crew changed the shape to round and the colors to red, white, and blue. (White represented Worden, blue represented Scott, and red represented Irwin.) The patch shows the three arcs over a photograph of Hadley Rille -- the section of the moon where Apollo 15 was to land. The shadows of the craters just to the center-right of the stylized birds form the Roman numeral XV. (NASA insisted that the mission number be displayed.)
The dust you see on the suit is moondust.
Apollo 15 was fourth manned mission to the Moon. It was designed to last a lot longer than previous stays on the Moon, so that additional scientific experiments could be conducted. The mission began on July 26, 1971, and concluded on August 7.
Commander David Scott and Lunar Module Pilot James Irwin landed the Lunar Module "Falcon" on the Moon, and spent three days there. This included 18.5 hours outside the LM. This was the first mission to not land on a "mare" (the so-called "lunar seas", or flat and smooth plains of basaltic lava). Instead, Apollo 15 landed near Hadley rille near Palus Putredinus (the Marsh of Decay). The crew explored the area using the Lunar Rover. Pilot Alfred Worden flew the Command Module "Endeavor" in orbit above the Moon, conducting numerous science experiments and even deploying a satellite in lunar orbit.
The spacesuit worn on Apollo 15 was a new design. Previous Apollo flights featured a suit with the life support, cooling, and communications connections in front in two parallel rows of three. The Apollo 15 "A7L-B" suit, however, placed these in triangular pairs. The zipper was also redesigned. The old zipper went up-and-down. But the new zipper went from the right shoulder to the left hip, and included a waist joint. This meant the astronauts could actually bend over for the first time, and sit on the Lunar Rover. Upgraded backpacks also permitted more time spent outside the LM.
Worden also wore a new spacesuit. While orbiting the Moon, he wore a three-connector suit. But Worden was scheduled to make a spacewalk during the flight home from the Moon. This suit had five connections (not six, since there was no need for liquid cooling). During his spacewalk, he retrieved film cartridges from an experiment on the exterior of the spacecraft.
When not in a "shirt-sleeve" environment, the space ferry-orbiting lab astronaut must wear a protective pressure suit. Main parts of such are shown in these General Electric sketches. The pressure suit undergarment, at left, can be worn under both the pressure suit and the shirt sleeve garment.

iss072e572297 (Jan. 28, 2025) --- Two spacesuits, with the helmets covered for protection, are staged inside the International Space Station's Quest airlock in preparation for spacewalk that NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore conducted on Jan. 30, 2025.
Engineers and technicians at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston are testing the spacesuit astronauts will wear in the agency’s Orion spacecraft on trips to deep space. On March 17, members of the Johnson team participated in a Vacuum Pressure Integrated Suit Test to verify enhancements to the suit will meet test and design standards for the Orion spacecraft. During this test, the suit is connected to life support systems and then air is removed from Johnson’s 11-foot thermal vacuum chamber to evaluate the performance of the suits in conditions similar to a spacecraft. The suit, known as the Modified Advanced Crew Escape Suit, is a closed-loop version of the launch and entry suits worn by space shuttle astronauts. The suit will contain all the necessary functions to support life and is being designed to enable spacewalks and sustain the crew in the unlikely event the spacecraft loses pressure. This is the first in a series of four tests with people in the suits to evaluate the performance of the spacesuit systems in an environment similar to a spacecraft.

New Missions, New Needs
The first U.S. space suit, worn by the Mercury astronauts, served as a second line of defense in case the Mercury capsule's air leaked into space. America's second space suit, the Gemini G3C, had that same basic job, but also had to permit the astronaut to perform other tasks important to Gemini's goals. Most critical of these was allowing the astronaut to step outside of his spacecraft into the endless vacuum of space.
Displayed here is the G4C version of the Gemini G3C space suit worn by the Gemini pilots when their mission included a walk in space. This is the actual G4C suit worn by Michael Collins during his two space walks on Gemini X July 18-21, 1966.
The Krechet-94 ("Gyrfalcon"), a lunar excursion spacesuit designed for use by cosmonauts of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. On display at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. Designed by Anatoli Stoklitskii of NPP Zvezda, it was developed in 1967. It was never used.
The suit was designed to be a man-carried space vehicle. It had 10 hours of oxygen and coolant, with a rigid aluminum upper torso, soft fabric limbs, and waist and hip joints. The shoulders and wrists had ball-bearing joints which allowed for 360 degree rotation. The inner fabric was gray nylon, and the insulation was honeycombed foil. The outer layer was a satin-weave fabric.
Cosmonauts entered the suit through a hatch in the back. The hatch could be opened from the inside by a lever near the right elbow. The hatch contained the life support elements (oxygen, etc.). A chest-mounted control and instrument panel folded out for use.
Cooling was not part of the Kretchet. This was supplied by a separate garment worn next to the skin.
