I was waiting the whole video for the guy to let him try on the fully assembled suit..

This suit mans voice is incredible. I just want him to narrate all the books ever

It is not a diaper, it is a high absorbency garment.

the diaper is missing in sandra bullock's gravity movie

I like the interview guy. He is so awkward lol. Also, you can tell he is really interested in the subject. It made me excited too 😊
-
Darn, those spacesuits on 0:12 still has old NASA worm logo. Lol
-
Just watching this is amazing. We get to see all of the technology astronauts use in space ( even if it totally looks 60’s ). I love these types of videos
-
The NASA guy looks like he's been out all night at some kind of space dance party. I look more sprightly when I've been awake for 3 days.

Very cool! Love to see these behind the scenes videos. Thank you for sharing.
-
I'd like to know more about the kind of insulation they use to shield the astronauts from the space around them. The way the gloves and the lower torso attach, are things that I would have liked to see.

i was watching this in class and the teacher never finished the video

Pretty crazy how the space suit hasn’t changed much in 40 years.
-
Norm, that was the best interview you have done. Great job.
-
SO COOL - I really liked seeing this after reading more and more about space recently. The tool belt was not something I knew about.
-
+1 for the Half Life reference!
-
Thank you for sharing. And thanks NASA for the information. Very interesting.

It’s mental to see what these spacesuits are like compared to the space x suits

The little key for changing the sockets is my new favorite thing.
