Even though space may be the last uncharted place, any daring human without a top-notch spacesuit will have a very difficult time traveling there. Throughout the past 50 years, there have been a number of significant historical moments that involved space suits.
It's amazing to experience wearing a space suit since it gives you a better understanding of what astronauts go through and how much labor is required.
But in order to safeguard astronauts who were risking their lives in the cause of space exploration, the first functional spacesuits were introduced in the early 1960s.
The evolution of astronauts' spacesuits over the past six decades, from the silvery suits of the Mercury program to Elon Musk's sleek Crew Dragon suits, is shown here.
Let's take a look at how spacesuit development has developed from past to present and according to what needs.

very little engineering information. Just a layman's view on the subject. Disappointing.

Space suits in 1961 allowed flights 400,000 km from Earth. They were airtight and resistant to gamma radiation. Golf could be played and flipped in an extremely dangerous space environment. Currently, the new space suits do not allow such flights, much less return from space. Isn't that weird? In fact, since there is currently no technology to fly into and return from space, there was definitely no flight anywhere 60 years ago. Apart from flying in a film studio. Simple and clear to everyone who thinks a bit and does not buy the mush shown on TV.

Stop spewing your conspiracy bs. There is an overwhelming amount of data that says you're wrong.

Are you a flat earther aswell?

@@mars7000 There is not a single word in my post about a flat Earth. However, there is not a single argument in your post. Why the fuck are you speaking on a topic you have no idea about? The topic of alleged flights to the Moon is related to mythical flights by NASA itself. The idea is that someone who asks an uncomfortable question will be ridiculed. It works with some idiots. As seen in your example. It's not your fault. The power of propaganda is really great. Regards.
