    NASA and Axiom Space unveil new spacesuit for Artemis III moon mission

    * Note: I don't know if it's the final color, but it's very "dark", closer to what Alien anticipated, rather than 2001 space odyssey... it gives me negative connotations.

    • OK. Uh. No. Despite the presence of the fluorescent orange here and there, wouldn't something that dark get lost against the blackness of, you know ... SPACE?Continuity
    • black would aid in leaving my handprint in moondust on the ass of my fellow spaceman as I gleefully bounced by him / her nearly weightless and full of joyPonyBoy
    • LOL!Continuity

    • I would've thought that purely physically it'd be simpler and more preferable to have white suits, but I don't think it's a major concern to not have them so.Nairn
    • i'm curious to know why they've gone this route - presumably there must be a reason? I think practical restrictions like visibility are moot...Nairn
    • ..if the suit's that far away and doesn't have energy/etc, they're fucked anyway. could do some cool things with LEDs or eLight inserts and such.Nairn
