Space Activity Suit
Since the 1960s, NASA has also investigated spacesuits that utilize mechanical pressure rather than pressurized gas to protect an astronaut. Such a “space activity suit” is essentially an allover skin-tight leotard, which would be very lightweight and provide far less impediments to motion than traditional spacesuits. As well, a small tear in the suit would only affect the area exposed by the hole rather than cause a potentially deadly decompression event. The only area of the suit that would need to be pressurized is the astronaut’s helmet.A space activity suit should be constructed from a tough elastic material able to maintain constant contact with all parts of the skin in order to prevent distortion and bruising. Because of this requirement, donning and doffing the spacesuit would be a rather laborious task. Engineering professor Dava Newman of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has helped NASA design a modern space activity suit, named the Bio-Suit, that uses elastic cords running through clothing made of nylon-spandex, elastic, or urethane-painted foam to maintain contact with the entire body.
