Abstract:
The current scenario of space tourism has created the need for the production of safe and protective space crafts and space suits. Many space companies are exploring the options to establish colonies on other planets and meteoroids. Hence, in the future there is going to be a requirement for a huge number of space suits that can provide not only protection in the hostile environment of space but also should meet functional needs such as longer shelf life, comfort, durability, reusability, flexibility to perform complex tasks and crisis mitigation. This article is an attempt to review about functional and protective properties of space suits.
