@@mehere8038 I would guess The Smithsonian would have both. Although they might be in different displayed and/or stored in different department sections. Real Space Suits would be in the in Air and Space section and the TV and Film in the entertainment section in the Humanities/culture Section/wings/buildings. Sorry not feeling well and forgetting the correct names.... What the public sees is very small sample of what they actually have in storage and available to lucky researchers. A Smithsonian behind the scene tours of what they act do there besides the displays is equally amazing. When they make a replacement part for any item, it is so close to the original, that they have to engrave it in way so that all future historians , preservationists, scientists, etc. will know that is not an original part.

_Destination Moon_ was written by Robert Heinlein, who was also an engineer. His writing is almost all technically very scientifically correct. He loved to make his ballistics and equipment as correct as the science of his time could make them. Sure he also had fantastical elements to his stories, but they tended to be a single element that added excitement to the plot. In _Destination Moon_ he tried to make it as technically plausible as he could because so many of the contemporary "science fiction" of the day were so outlandish and ridiculous.

I think the facemask material used in Star Trek was fine screen mesh. The appearance of the mask material just reminds me of looking through a mesh screen. It would have been cheap, easy to find, given an exotic look, and not as expensive as polycarbonate. The shape of the helmet lends itself to a rectangular screen as well.

About the similarity of 2001: A Space Odyssey suits/helmets and Moonraker suits/helmets, especially Drax's 'yellow/orange' ones... they were both designed by Harry Lange (Lange had won a BAFTA for 2001 btw). For 2001 though, the suit was made by 'Frankenstein and Sons' (based in Manchester, United Kingdom) and the helmet and life-support packs were made by 'Master Models' (based in London). With both movies being made in England I wonder if both these companies were involved?

I think her point is that the astronauts on the receiving end of the laser guns are getting blasted away. A projectile with a significant amount of mass or an explosive is required to blast them in such a dramatic way. A high power laser weapon would likely just burn a hole through the pressure suit or melt instruments, tubing, etc. at the impact sight, pretty much still dooming the pilot of the suit, but in a much slower and less dramatic way.
@jagrathty2743
@jagrathty2743 2 жыл бұрын
Nah.. I think she meant that if those weapons can blast enemy away.. means they carry some mass right? So they should have some recoil which they don't... And also, light in space does affect the speed of objects in space even though it's very very very less. But it does.

I think the point stands, though - the suit could easily have been intended for a 6' 6" astronaut. It is also plausible that having an oversized suit was just an artistic decision to make the situation seem more uncomfortable and threatening.

Interesting thoughts about the Stargate Atlantis suits. Normally on the show, they just used replications of regular space suits, since it was set in present day. Those suits in the clip were unique, not even designed for humans but rather they adjust to fit around any being that enters it, designed by little gray aliens who interacted with humans. I never really thought of them as space suits - more like alien power armor. She's great though! Would love to see her on Adam Savage's show.

I think the easy-to-shatter helmets on Prometheus were part of the "let's make sure that something goes dramatically wrong" mission design. You know, like naming your vessel after somebody who ends up chained to a rock, being eviscerated by an eagle once a day. She's right, Sigourney Weaver looks like she's disappearing in that astronaut's suit (but I think in close ups they changed it so doesn't peer over the lower end of the visor).

Naming exploration vessels after extremely ominous subjects is just a reflection of real-life! I mean, just look at the HMS Terror and HMS Erebus… 😬

I appreciate that she highlighted pros and cons as well as the feasibility and realism of the suits rather than giving a number value and basically saying anything negative. Overall very pleasant I didn't even realize it had been nearly 40 minutes

Wonderful video! Can't believe she didn't talk about the rapid decompression effect in Outland though.
