In Milan, the fashion house and Axiom Space have revealed how astronauts will be decked out on the lunar surface during the Artemis 3 mission in 2026.
This story originally appeared on WIRED Italia and has been translated from Italian. 'We are witnessing the beginning of a new era, as the internet was in the 1980s. Today access to space is still something for the few, but just as in computing, in a few years prices will come down. Everyone should indulge in the beauty of an adventure.' So said Lorenzo Bertelli, chief marketing officer of Prada, today at the International Astronautical Congress 2024 in Milan, Italy.
The entire AxEMU is, in fact, designed to fit easily 'in no more than two minutes,' Ralston said, and if you're concerned it is just for size-zero spacefarers, Prada promises it will be suitable for different physiognomies of both men and women astronauts, from the first to 99th percentile . The suit is equipped with several redundancy systems and an integrated diagnostic system. A regenerable carbon dioxide removal system is onboard, as well as cooling technology to dissipate heat.
