On a essayé nos scaphandres une dernière fois avant le retour, pour une ultime vérification. Il y a une légende urbaine qui raconte l’histoire d’un astronaute qui ne rentrait plus dans sa combinaison après avoir abusé de la musculation pendant ses 6 mois de mission, et non ce n’était pas moi en 2017 💪 Pas forcément facile à enfiler, mais on s’entraide. 😁
We tried on our spacesuits one last time to check that everything still fits! There’s an urban legend of an astronaut who worked out so much on ISS that he didn’t fit in his spacesuit (or in his custom-moulded) seat for return… it’s not going to be me… I hope 💪. As getting into the spacesuits is not easy, and maybe because it will be one of the last times we are weightless for a long time the pictures came out fun.

Please welcome the mech-size LEGO Spacesuit. The LEGO building instruction is available in Rebrickable.
For the Day of Cosmonautics (April 12) - such a spacesuit was used in the first Soviet manned suborbital flights with dogs in the 50s, when a geophysical rocket R-1, a modified version of the famous German V-2, was used for the launch.
from the exposition of the Memorial museum of astronautics at Moscow, Russia
К Дню Космонавтики (12 апреля) - такой скафандр использовался в первых советских пилотируемых суборбитальных полетах с собаками проводившимися в 50-е гг, когда для запуска использовалась геофизическая ракета Р-1, модфицированный вариант известной немецкой Фау-2.

Un nouveau cycle de sorties extravéhiculaires (mon correcteur orthographique veut plutôt écrire « extraordinaires » et honnêtement ça n’aurait pas été faux) est sur le point de commencer. Cette fois-ci, Mark et Aki prendront place dans les scaphandres. Comme d'habitude, les vérifications sont de mise : il faut s'assurer que tout fonctionne bien et qu'ils leur vont. Ils l'ont déjà fait sur Terre, mais si vous vous rappelez bien, la colonne vertébrale s'allonge un peu un impesanteur, on grandit momentanément Et puis 2 précautions valent mieux qu'une ! Entrer et sortir de sa combinaison, une véritable armure, reste un moment délicat, peu importe l'expérience de l'astronaute 😆 Pour ces essais, c'est Megan qui était aux commandes des opérations 👨🚀🚀👩🚀
Another cycle of EVAs is set to begin, but this time I’m not in the spacesuit! Mark and Aki will head out the door. One important step is verifying that their suits fit and work properly (don’t forget, our spines lengthen and our bodies change a bit in weightlessness). Getting in and out of the US EMU suit is a team effort. In this case, Megan was running the show. 👨🚀🚀👩🚀

The LEGO building instruction is available in Rebrickable.
This posable mech-size realistic spacesuit build was inspired by the latest spacesuits being developed in the United States. The spacesuit consists of the pressure garment assembly (PGA, so-called "suit") and Portable Life Support System (PLSS, so-called "backpack"). PGA provides pressure and mobility, while PLSS provides life-supporting functions such as oxygen supply, cooling, and CO2 removal.
Piotr et Oleg ont terminé leur 3e sortie extravéhiculaire ! Hier ils ont à nouveau passé un peu plus de 7h30 à l’extérieur de la Station, toujours pour la mise en service du module scientifique russe MLM. Les câbles télé et internet sont maintenant branchés, on a tout le confort moderne ! 😉 Bien entendu, par télévision on entend le canal utilisé par les chercheurs pour nous aider lors des expériences, et par le centre de contrôle pour suivre notre travail et nous accompagner… les caméras sont à bord mais les écrans sont sur terre ! 😁 Ils ont également installé un dispositif de rendez-vous et d’amarrage, et même une expérience de biologie à l’extérieur du module MRM2. Encore une journée bien fatigante pour nos amis, nous étions heureux et soulagés de les voir rentrer : c’est toujours une bonne occasion pour célébrer On est en plein dans la saison 2 des sorties extravéhiculaires puisqu’Aki et moi nous préparons à sortir dimanche (encore du travail sur les panneaux solaires).
Spacewalk 3️⃣ for Oleg and Pyotr complete! They spent another 7 and a half hours outside yesterday for more work on the new Russian science module MLM. Television and internet is now connected, what more could you need? ;). (the television is for researchers to follow our progress working on experiments and the control centre to help us throughout the day, not for us to watch of course!) Well, they also installed a rendezvous and docking system, handrails, and even a biology experiment on the MRM2 or Poisk module that is on the other side of MLM! Another busy and tiring day, and we were happy to see them back. Being safely back inside is always a good reason to celebrate! We are really into spacewalk season two now, Aki and myself are preparing to go outside this Sunday to work on the P-4 truss and prepare it for more roll-out solar arrays.

Très heureux de l'annonce de Josef Aschbacher: je devrais devenir le 4e commandant européen de la Station spatiale internationale, à la fin de ma mission. Je suis fier de recevoir cet honneur ! Si tout se passe comme prévu, je serai le premier commandant français de l’ISS, après les astronautes de l’ESA Frank De Winne, Alexander Gerst et Luca Parmitano. Le commandant de la Station est en quelque sorte le capitaine du vaisseau. Bien sûr, la majorité des décisions sont prises par le Centre de contrôle en collaboration avec l’équipage, mais le commandant est la voix des astronautes en orbite. Et s’il faut faire des choix rapidement (en cas d’urgence par exemple), c’est aussi le rôle du commandant.
The ESA Director General announced during today's Mission Alpha briefing: I shall become the fourth European commander of the Space Station at the end of the mission. Honoured to be chosen for this role! If it happens, I will be the first French commander of the Space Station, following from the ESA astronauts Frank De Winne, Alexander Gerst and Luca Parmitano, and this is thanks to the great work of ESA and CNES and a recognition of that work from the international partners for which I benefit from. The role of Space Station commander is like a captain on a ship, the highest in command. Of course lots of decisions are made by mission control in collaboration with the astronauts, but the commander is the voice of the astronauts in orbit, and quick decisions in case of emergencies are taken by the commander.

“Spacesuits and computers were used in combination with a simplified mockup of NASA's Apollo moonship (background) at the Aeronautical Division of Honeywell in Minneapolis, where the stabilization and control system for the three-man spacecraft was developed. In the photo engineer Bill Summers (left) made final adjustments on one of a number of computers which would feed simulated flight information to engineer-test pilot Jim O'Neil (right) when he was inside the command module mockup.
--Minneapolis-Honeywell photo”
Despite the “sepiation” of a large portion of the photograph, it’s wonderfully vivid, sharp, glossy & detailed…absolutely delightful.
A wonderful & unexpected surprise, the above description, along with the image is at the following (Adobe Acrobat page 202, of 297):
history.nasa.gov/SP-4009vol2.pdf
If the following information/identification is correct, Mr. O’Neil appears (to me) to be wearing a Mark IV full pressure suit, manufactured by Arrowhead Manufacturing Company (as a competitor to the B.F. Goodrich suit):

And:

Additionally, pertaining to the Mark IV image:
"This is a United States Navy Mark IV high altitude pressure suit. The Arrowhead Products Company made this suit in the mid-1950s at the request of the Navy as a competition suit. The B. F. Goodrich Company made a similar suit that the Navy later adopted as it as its emergency pressure suit., One interesting feature of this suit is the use of the molded rubber convolutes in the joints. These joints allowed pilots greater mobility in the arms, legs and waist than previous suits and were lighter weight, too. However, they were hard and uncomfortable for pilots while sitting in the aircraft cockpit. Nevertheless, NASA obtained this suit from the Navy during the course of evaluating pressure suits to turn into spacesuits for the Mercury program. Even though NASA opted to use the B.F. Goodrich design for Mercury, they kept the convolute joint in mind and selected the ILC Industries as the contractor for Apollo suits when that company proposed a similar joint system., NASA transferred this suit to the Museum in 1975."

Last, but certainly not least. And I may be reaching; however, could this possibly be the same Jim O’Neil??? To me, the eyes, nose, even filtrum & upper lip contour look to be of the same person. Although the timeline of his biography doesn’t fully support such, he was in a staff position at this time…so maybe?:

Boeing's new spacesuit designed to be worn by astronauts flying on the CST-100 Starliner. Seen here being worn in the same manner as it will on launch day for the walk to the spacecraft at Space Launch Complex 41, 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.

Tim Peake wore this emergency suit in the Soyuz spacecraft during his launch to and return from the International Space Station. It would have kept him alive had the spacecraft depressurised. The electrical and air connectors can be seen on the abdomen and a large blue pressure adjustment valve in the centre of the chest. Every Soyuz cosmonaut has worn a Sokol since the tragic loss of the Soyuz 11 crew in 1971, none of whom were wearing suits.
It was introduced in 1973 and is still used as of 2022. The Sokol is described by its makers as a rescue suit and it is not capable of being used outside the spacecraft in a spacewalk or extravehicular activity. It is similar to the ACES suit that was worn aboard NASA's Space Shuttle during launch and landing.
The Sokol-KV2, the current version of the suit, was first used on the Soyuz T-2 mission, launched on June 5, 1980.
The main improvement was the replacement of the rubber pressure layer of the Sokol-K with rubberised polycaprolactam (Nylon 6) to save weight. The visor was modified and enlarged to give the wearer a better field of view. Laces in the outer canvas layer were replaced with zippers to make the suit quicker to don and the pressure relief valve was moved from the left abdomen to the centre of the chest so either hand could be used to alter the suit's pressure setting. The improved arms, legs, and gloves of the Sokol-KV were retained although the liquid cooled undergarment of the KM and KV was discarded.
Major Timothy Nigel Peake CMG (born 7 April 1972) is a British Army Air Corps officer, European Space Agency astronaut and a former International Space Station (ISS) crew member.
He is the first British ESA astronaut, the second astronaut to bear a flag of the United Kingdom patch (following Helen Sharman), the sixth person born in the United Kingdom to go on board the International Space Station, and the seventh UK-born person in space. He began the ESA's intensive astronaut basic training course in September 2009 and graduated on 22 November 2010.

Tenth Doctor David Tennant, here in minifigure form, was the first to wear the already classic orange spacesuit.
About the spacesuit:
NASA plans to go back to the moon. Currently the new spacesuit for moonwalk is under development to be worn by the "next man" since the last moonwalk in 1972 during the Apollo Program, and the "first woman" in the history.
Several countries joined the NASA Artemis Program to suppoer the return to the moon!
Australia, Canada, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States of America, and European Space Agency (ESA).
This mech-scale LEGO MOC will be the first posable and playable mech- size LEGO spacesuit. Thanks to the large size, I was able to build the details of the life support system inside the backpack.
