Korte beschrijving/Annotatie

This book explores the development and technology of spacesuits that protect humans in space.

Tekst achterflap

A spacesuit is one of the most demanding pieces of engineering ever designed for the human body, a wearable spacecraft that must provide air, pressure, temperature control, and protection in an environment that allows no margin for error. This book examines how such garments came to exist and how they continue to evolve. This is an AI-generated book that brings together historical and scientific information on the subject in a clear, organized way. You will learn about the early pressure suits developed for high altitude flight, the designs created for the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and Shuttle programs, and the technology behind current and future suits intended for the International Space Station, lunar missions, and Mars exploration. The book also explains the underlying physiology of survival in vacuum, the materials and life support systems involved, and the engineering challenges that designers continue to address. You will come away with a clear, factual understanding of how spacesuits work and why they matter.
