KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -Also because of the lack of atmosphere, the astronauts would be subjected to extreme temperatures in outer space. Hence space suits are designed to protect astronauts against extreme heat and cold.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Apollo lunar spacesuits (A-7L), were designed to provide a life sustaining environment for the astronaut during periods of extravehicular activity or during unpressurized spacecraft operation. The suits are made of a white, non-flammable material called beta cloth, a Teflon-coated fiberglass.

Detailed explanation-3: -Like a tire, a space suit is essentially an inflated balloon that is restricted by some rubberized fabric, in this case, Neoprene-coated fibers. The restriction placed on the “balloon” portion of the suit supplies air pressure on the astronaut inside, like blowing up a balloon inside a cardboard tube.
