Luxury fashion house Prada will be designing NASA’s new spacesuits so astronauts can fly in style::Prada engineers will assist Axiom Space’s team with developing design features for the spacesuits and adapt material to the space and lunar environment.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Seems most people disagree with this project. I, on the other hand, think excellent looking spacesuits is great for PR. It’s not like they are going to be much cheaper designed by Old Navy or GAP
The original Lunar space suits worn by our Apollo astronauts were made by Playtex. Yes, the same Playtex that makes womans bras.
The designer of the SpaceX in-vehicel space suits was the same Hollywood designer that made Iron Man and Black Panther costumes.
I don’t think anyone was upset by that. I’m not quite sure why folks are upset by these new spacesuits.
