ESSAY ON: Extravehicular Space Suit

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: An 8 page paper discussing the components of this highly advanced piece of space equipment. The astronaut’s proximal point of survival during extravehicular activities in space, the extravehicular space suit (ESS) has steadily evolved over the years to the form in which it exists today. The ESS is the complete unit, but it is comprised of several critical, nonnegotiable components. There is no degree of hierarchy outside of the primary life support system; all components are of equal importance to the astronaut when performing extravehicular activities. Life support, communications and protection for the astronauts can be considered to have been perfected. The future direction of ESS evolution likely will be that of reducing bulk and increasing mobility. Includes an appendix of Internet sources of diagrams and photographs. The MLA-style bibliography lists 11 sources and 23 footnotes.
