Spacesuit fit check 👨🚀 with Aki, but this time I was supporting him to get into his suit ready for the vacuum chamber. The spacesuits can be adapted to fit different astronauts, but the configuration needs to be checked. This is not a task to be taken lightly because once properly setup all the air is sucked out of the vacuum chamber to ensure no leaks are detected 💨 It is a lengthy process because we double-check everything but with Aki it was a pleasure 😊

Cette fois-ci, c’est moi qui aide Aki à enfiler sa combinaison de sortie EVA 👨🚀 comme nous le ferons en orbite (ce n'est jamais une tâche individuelle). Le but de l'entraînement en chambre à vide c'est de tester sa configuration de scaphandre (il s'adapte par parties à quasiment toutes les tailles) et de s'exposer au vide. Avec Aki, même les situations extrêmes sont toujours une partie de plaisir 😊

ISS036-E-037249 (27 Aug. 2013) --- The Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit helmet – worn by European Space Agency astronaut Luca Parmitano during a July 16 spacewalk that was cut short when the helmet began to fill with water – is captured in a close-up image in the Quest airlock of the International Space Station. After assembling and powering up the empty suit as if it were about to go out on another spacewalk, Parmitano and NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy (both out of frame), both Expedition 36 flight engineers, observed water once again leaking into the helmet. With the issue reproduced, NASA now has a baseline configuration for the crew to begin swapping out parts for additional tests to pinpoint the problem. There are also opportunities to either launch replacement parts on upcoming cargo flights or return parts to Earth for further study once more is known about the cause of the issue.

"What do YOU think?"
"I think maybe I should not have had onions on that hamburger before we got suited up."
Took body measurements for our space suits today. I am 3 cm taller now than before launch.
Haben gestern Körpergröße für unsere Raumanzüge gemessen. Bin seit Missionsbeginn 3 cm gewachsen!

Moon footprint anomaly does not match Neil Armstrongs spacesuit.This is one of the biggest anomalies there is (depending) on who you ask and what you believe? Personally there was something else that made me believe that NASA lies which I show you a video about in this post. The fact the footprint on the Moon doesn't even look right doesn't surprise me at all. Oh, and they "just so happen left the real shoe" that made the footprint, on the Moon. I also show you a scale model green screen blunder of the ISS when a news crew was supposed to go to a live spacewalk. @ufosightingsfootage #ufosightingsfootage #ufosfootage @ufosfootage #nasafootprint #nasamoonfootrintlie #moonanomaly #moon #moons #moonfootprintiswrong #moonfootprint #armstrongsfootprint #moonconspiracy #mooncraterconspiracy #mooncraters #aliensonmoon #lifeonmoon #lifeinmoon #conspiraciesonthemoon #spaceshipufo #resupplyshipufo #progresscargoufo #ufos #ufo #ufosfootages #imeantheyarealiens #arealiensreal #realaliens #extraterrestrial #extraterrestrials #et #worldhistory #humanhistory #timelinesarewrong www.ufosightingsfootage.uk

NASA astronaut Eric Boe wears Boeing's new spacesuit designed to be worn by astronauts flying on the CST-100 Starliner. The suit is lighter and more flexible than previous spacesuits but retains the ability to pressurize in an emergency. Astronauts will wear the suit throughout the launch and ascent into orbit as well as on the way back to Earth. Starliners will launch atop Atlas V rockets from United Launch Alliance on missions including flights to the International Space Station for NASA's Commercial Crew Program. NASA's commercial crew astronauts Boe and Suni Williams tried on the suits at Boeing’s Commercial Crew and Cargo Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Boe, Williams, Bob Behnken, and Doug Hurley were selected by NASA in July 2015 to train for commercial crew test flights aboard the Starliner and SpaceX’s Crew Dragon spacecraft. The flight assignments have not been set, so all four of the astronauts are rehearsing heavily for flights aboard both vehicles. Photo credit: Boeing
"The Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU) is a one-man, self-contained, gas-propelled backpack, which snaps onto the spacesuit’s portable life-support system. Using rotational and translational hand controllers, the crewmember is able to fly with great precision in or around the Shuttle cargo bay or to nearby free-flying payloads or structures and to reach many otherwise inaccessible areas outside the Orbiter. In addition, it can be used to support payloads by enabling a crewmember to perform external inspections, deploy, service, repair, and retrieve satellites or possible repair of the Orbiter during early orbital flight tests. In the event of a disabled Orbiter, and MMU-fitted crewmember from a rescue Orbiter would assist in the pickup of crewmen trapped in the disabled Orbiter. The MMU is stowed for launch and landing in the forward portion of the Shuttle cargo bay at a flight support station. The MMU propellant is non-contaminating, gaseous nitrogen stored under high pressure and can be recharged from the Orbiter. The MMU system is designed to provide EVA support for up to six hours. The reliability of the MMU is guaranteed with a dual parallel system, rather than a backup, redundant system. In the event of a failure in one parallel system, it would be shut down and the remaining system would be used to the return the MMU to the Orbiter cargo bay. Either system provides complete control for a safe return, although with a reduced response. The MMU weighs 310 pounds and the flight support station weighs 175 pounds. The MMU is being developed by Martin Marietta Aerospace, Denver, Colorado under contract to the NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas.”

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. This locker reveals a long-lost spacesuit recently uncovered at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS) in Florida. A recent venture into a long-locked room at CCAFS uncovered interesting artifacts of a bygone era: retired space suits from Americans who trained in the 1960s to be astronauts aboard an Air Force orbiting reconnaissance laboratory. Two security officers were doing a check of a facility at Launch Complex 5/6 blockhouse. NASA Special Agent Dan E. Oakland and Security Manager Henry Butler, who is with Delaware North Parks and Resorts, the company that oversees the museum, discovered a locked room. Space suits from the Air Forces planned Manned Orbiting Laboratory (MOL) program were found in the room Begun in 1964, the MOL program was an Air Force initiative that would have sent Air Force astronauts to a space station in a Gemini capsule. After spending a few weeks in orbit, the crew would undock and return to Earth. A test launch from Complex 40 on Nov. 30, 1966, of a MOL was conducted with an unmanned Gemini capsule. The MOL was constructed from tankage of a Titan II rocket. The operational MOL was planned to be launched into a polar orbit from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The Air Force abandoned the program in 1969, but the program produced a great deal of technological development, and three groups of military officers trained to be MOL astronauts. When the program was cancelled, seven of the younger astronauts were transferred to the agencys human space flight program and went on to have standout careers. Among them were Robert Crippen, pilot of the first Space Shuttle mission, and Richard H. "Dick" Truly, who later became NASA Administrator.

Illustrating “Have Spacesuit – Will Travel” by Robert A. Heinlein. Part 1 of 3.
“Have Space Suit – Will Travel” was later published in hardcover by Scribner’s. It is a timeless gem that combines adventure, space exploration, and coming-of-age themes. Although initially aimed at a juvenile audience, its storytelling and thought-provoking ideas make it a compelling read for adults as well.
The story follows the journey of Clifford "Kip" Russell, a high school senior with a passion for space travel. When he wins a contest and receives a genuine space suit, he embarks on an unexpected adventure. Kip finds himself kidnapped by extraterrestrial beings and taken to the Moon, where he encounters a galactic conflict and meets the enigmatic 11-year-old girl named Peewee, a young genius, and an alien being known as the Mother Thing. Together, they must navigate the challenges of space, face interstellar threats, and unravel the mysteries of the universe.
Kip’s growth from an ordinary teenager to a resourceful space traveler is well-crafted and Heinlein’s vivid descriptions of space travel, alien worlds, and technological wonders immerse readers in a thrilling adventure. [Sources: Goodreads.com and Wikipedia]
