Virgin Galactic and Under Armour unveil spacesuits 'for the masses.'
Virgin Galactic and Under Armour unveiled the first spacesuits"for the masses" on Wednesday, as companies work to capitalize on the new frontier of commercial space tourism.
"Spacesuits are a part of the iconography of the first space age; our visual impressions of human spaceflight and what astronauts wear are inextricably linked," Branson said in a statement."Requirements for astronaut spacewear as we enter the second space age are evolving, but the design challenge has not diminished."
The spacesuits are the first collection of its kind ever made specifically for private astronauts, according to the company. The full suit is comprised of footwear, a base layer, spacesuit, training suit and jacket. Under Armour's CEO and founder described the suits as a"unique twist on the classic spacesuit utilizing both existing and new UA technologies to define space gear for the future."
