RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] ADS NewtSuit/HardSuit Applications



Phil,
 
  Understand that this come more from ignorance of one of these suits and what using one would feel like than anything else. Is the air refreshed constantly? How much actual mobility does one of these suits afford you...I mean before your movements cause movement to the outer suit itself?
  Is the refreshed air cooled or could it get stuffy after prolonged use?
  How are communications maintained with the people topside?
  Really interesting area of study!
