You have got to be s***ing me. The PUBLIC voted on the design? Whatever happened to designing a suit for the job not for some beauty contest.
God Knows this nation is doomed.

They don’t even have a ride to the ISS now and they’re window shopping for Mars space suits? Give me a break. If there aren’t any illegal alien (unquestionably alien) votes there, it just ain’t gonna happen folks. Count on it.
Just more bloated bureaucratic unneeded government agency wasteful spending.

I don’t know, but given that Mars has actually a little over 1/3 of the Earth’s gravity, you’re going to need something much lighter than the moon landing suits to be practical. Plus there’s the problem of seasonal dust storms on Mars when the CO2 is thawed and there is that weak atmosphere.

This is what you get when NASA spends your cash on global lying, muslim worship and democrats running the show.

Not very appealing. Thumbs down.
To: bkopto
The design uses luminescent wire to form a light on the front of the suit that can be personalised to help astronauts identify other individuals on their team.
I guess that a large label on the suit with "Hello, My Name is Smitty" printed on it is just too easy.

Nasa has released pictures
Nasa? You mean NASA? It's an acronym, not a proper noun.
Feckin' 21st Century "journalists."

Of course! The Racially Ambiguous astronaut. How perfectly PC of NASA....
[Shades of the SNL Ambiguously Gay Duo!]
I’d be willing to bet you they had more design meetings on what the astronaut would look like that what the suit actually does.

Thing is as butt ugly as the new Tampa Bay Buc uniforms. Nike must have designed it as well.
