Spacesuit for Moon return revealed
NASA has unveiled a new spacesuit designed for use in the upcoming Artemis program, which aims to return humans to the moon by 2024. The new suit, known as the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (xEMU), is an upgrade from the suits used during the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 70s. The xEMU is designed to provide better mobility and flexibility, with the ability to withstand extreme temperatures and pressure changes on the lunar surface. It features improved joints and bearings, allowing astronauts to move their arms and legs more easily.
