MOONWALKERS

If we want to send astronauts to the Moon, they will need the latest technology to assist them. While astronauts have undergone multiple spacewalks since the Apollo missions, these have not required them to walk on the surface of a celestial body. The next astronaut to walk on the Moon will do so in a brand-new, updated spacesuit. NASA has unveiled Artemis-generation spacesuits designed especially for the mission: one for the launch and landing, worn inside the spacecraft, and one to protect the bodies of those venturing outside the protection of the Orion capsule. The suits will be custom fit to their bodies, with the aim of improving upon the comfort and practicality of previous versions.
