What are some interesting facts about the spacesuit?

No less than a mini rocket is the heavy costume of astronauts. Let's know what happens inside this

You must have seen the spacesuit in Hollywood movies based on space and the actual photographs related to the space mission. Have you ever thought about why astronauts look so full after wearing them? The thing is that Bholuram is not a uniform, but it is itself a very small spacecraft-like scientific instrument. It also has a computer, air conditioning, oxygen, drinking water, and even inbuilt toilet. Not only this, the spacesuits are attached to a rocket-powered backpack while exiting the spacecraft while studying or repairing the spacecraft so that the astronauts can fly easily. All space suits are filled with air so that the conditions of the space are not adversely affected by the body. This is the reason why astronauts feel bloated and unformed after wearing them.

Safeguard against the dangerous environment

Now you must know what are the conditions in space, because of which astronauts have to wear such a dress? The first thing is that there is no air and if there is a man in the open environment, then due to lack of oxygen, it can be fainting in 15 seconds and then even death. The temperature in space changes very dramatically. If the sun is in front of you, the temperature of the atmosphere can be above 120 degrees Celsius and the same temperature in the shade immediately falls to minus 100 degrees Celsius. In such a condition the body and its internal fluid start boiling or freezing. With this [because there is no wind], our body comes in contact with the direct radiation from the sun and other space pads without any protective layer. There is a fear of suffering from dangerous diseases like cancer.

Pilots contested

The spacesuit was invented about 80 years ago and was designed for military pilots who carried aircraft at high altitudes in the sky. The higher the pilots flew, the lighter the air became and hence they felt the need for special attire to take mother-in-law and support the body. After this, space competition started in the US and the Soviet Union in the 50s and 60s, and better spacesuits were made. The first space suit made by the American space research organization 'NASA' for 'Mercury Space Mission' was the color of silver. Space scientists believed that this would reverse the sun's deadly rays. During NASA's Gemini mission, the spacesuits were equipped with superior and latest technology. The reason was that now astronauts had to get out of the spacecraft and study. The biggest detachment in the development of the spacesuit is believed to be America's 'Apollo Mission', in which astronauts landed on the surface of the bed. For this purpose, a large backpack was included in the Apollo spacesuit, which provided batteries, air, and water to work for 8 hours.

View of space from Earth!

Modern space technology has also made the life of astronauts much easier in another way. They no longer have to wear heavy space suits like earlier astronauts while working inside the Space Shuttle or International Space Station. They can live in simple overalls or even household clothes, but if you want to get out, work cannot be done without a spacesuit… which is the same dangerous situation that we mentioned in the beginning. Modern space suits are manifold Advas compared to Apollo. Today, a spacesuit consists of at least 24 small rocket motors, with the help of which can be 'blown' out of the spacecraft for a long time. Ha Bholuram, Today's space suits are as powerful as a mini rocket, which is directly in the hands of astronauts. The helmet in the spacesuit has a very powerful camera so that even the astronauts sitting on Earth can see what the astronaut floating in distant space is seeing. This phenomenon of working out of spacecraft is called EVA [extravascular activity].

Two glasses in the helmet

The helmet attached to the spacesuit consists of two mirrors. If the outside protects the eyes from the glare of the sun in space, then the inside stops the air. Astronauts also wear a cap under the helmet. Called the 'Snoopy Cap', this cap has microphones and speakers fitted to communicate among themselves.

Why are there two colors

Now the spacesuits worn in space are white and the spacesuits worn when flying to and returning to space are orange-colored .. you know why? So that if there is an accident during latching/landing, it is easy to search for astronauts who save lives by jumping with a parachute from the sky!

Mission patch

For every space mission, there are special logos on the astronaut suit. These are called 'mission patches'. The logo has the mission symbol, spacecraft and passenger name written on it.

Spacesuit cost

.. guess how much a space suit would make? It is known that Bholuram, in Indian rupees, its value sits above about 40 million rupees. Wearing it is also no less difficult. It takes one to one and a half hours to wear it properly and check everything.
