TIL: Spacesuits are pretty damn expensive

avatar

Here's something really cool I learned today. Spacesuits are fucking expensive!

Approximately, 150 fucking million dollars to be more exact! And thanks to their price, NASA is still using the same suits since the Apollo missions, with the last suit being produced in 1974! And as we speak, NASA has only 4 suits that are space ready!

Watch the video below for these and more cool facts about NASA's spacesuits:

This just blew my mind. I would've thought they were constantly upgrading and would essentially be cyborg grade tech by now.

Spacesuits are expensive because they are made with special yarns

You can't beat the Jetpack man! The new suits are in no way as cool.

I look at it as a travel vessel in a shape of a sea star with one leg being translucent and a bit bulkier 😂

You know who the !PIMP is? It's the guy that made this deal and lined his pockets with the "spare change" he undoubtedly padded into the price.

The subject of discovering what surrounds our planet on the outside will always be interesting, but can you imagine that companies start investing a lot of money in discovering the depths of our oceans?
