Why are they showing a white guy in the suit? I keep hearing from NASA that the next people on the moon will NOT be white.

(in reality, they’re more likely to be Chinese)

OK, but what does this statement mean?

“contain built-in specialized for exploration and scientific opportunities”

Built-in, specialized what?

Apparently designed to absorb all wave lengths and be heated. Of course, a black suit against the black of space is so easy to see ...

I’ve seen it in space movies, Stargate Atlantis had the best scenes of it. Small space rocks ripping thru the space suits like they were tissue paper. I often wonder how much truth there is to that in reality.

One one hand I can see it, but adding the fact that they are weightless in space, would the small grains just bounce off? Gets a little confusing when pondered!!

I wouldn’t want to be wearing a black suit in outer space unless I was hoping nobody could ever find me if I got loose somehow.

I'd like to see how they approached the glove problem. You can work around other issues like O2 pre-breathing and personal relief by using a hard suit design and diapers. The manual manipulators i.e. gloves, however, has always been a b&^ch. Trying to provide manipulative dexterity with environmental protection is a challenge. Current ISS crew struggle with moving their fingers against suit pressure and tend to lose fingernails during EVAs due to rubbing angainst the metal tips.

Useful space gloves... aye, there's the rub.

Is this the inside suit? The suits should be white to reflect the sun.

“No human has set foot on the moon since Apollo 17 left in late 1972 and no other countries have sent explorers to the lunar surface.”

Gee, I wonder if there might be a reason for that.
