Fun Fact: As they said in the video "We don't make that many space suits..." is so true. My grandfather was a pilot, and was asked to fly one box for NASA, just one box, on a massive cargo plane. The box contained one of the spacesuits being flown back to Florida from the shuttle landing in CA. He and his co-pilot asked. "What? They don't trust us to fly them all back?" The reply they were given was "Its not that, we just can't afford to lose all the suits if you crash"
I mean, if you think about it, it makes sense. One suit is not just an expense, but also a time consuming affair to make. You can't cut corners with these. They're hand made (for the most part, there's some expediency that modern tech has afforded them - probably, like laser cutting all the fabrics) cocoons that wrap one life. They're the one thing that can't be jiggled or tempted, because it's a life line. You cut costs for publicity stunts to make these... someone invariably dies. So the "cost" isn't just $ it's also an incredible amount of responsibility. They're basically more valuable than THE crown jewels (in some respects).
The MAG obviously serves two roles; absorbency if you need to relieve yourself, and when you think you're too cool wearing an EV suit, you remember; "I'm wearing a diaper," this ensures your head fits inside the helmet.
To be honest, the fact that they made a suit in which an untrained civilian is able to perform all these simulated tasks is really impressive, like really really impressive and I think it's a good sign for the suits overall.
Did you watch the SpaceX EVA in their suit. This suit is basically the same as the one from the 70's where SpaceX and their suit is like wearing a neoprene surfing suit and it has 75% more range of motion than this machine you wear that makes you extra slow and clunky. SpaceX's EVA suit was just displayed live and it is night and day compared to this thing. That's the difference between Govt in control and private sector.
In a world where so much stuff on the internet is negative and divisive, I just want you to know how refreshing it is to watch your videos. Thanks for making the world a little bit better in your unique way.
My husband is the lead engineer for the M&P group at Axiom! Everyone I've met from there has been good people; a really fun, smart, dedicated crew for sure. SOOO jealous you got to get in the suit!!
I DID think to myself "This is basically like wearing a mini car, or more aptly a mini plane/spacecraft on your body..." (because plane holds pressure)
Reasonably sure that naming was a product of early NASA engineers trying to convince the original astronauts to wear them and all of those guys were too proud to wear anything called a diaper. Similar ego "accommodations" had to be made when designing and tailoring (sizing) the sleeves fitted over their penises for urinating, lol
Another misconception about what would happen of you were magicaly teleported to space without a spacesuit is that your blood would start to boil because the pressure would drop below the boiling point of water at body temperature. That simply would never happen because your blood vessels (or skin and connecting tissue in general) are a lot stronger than you might think, they would stretch but not by much and definitely not enough to drop the blood pressure below water boiling point. Basically your skin would become your spacesuit, keeping yourself together. Even embolism wouldn't be a problem because if you were able to quickly return to normal pressure (maybe repressurize a faulty airlock) they would disappear immediatly, and if you were to remain in a vacuum or near vacuum too long even then they would hardly matter as you would pass out and then die by hypoxia way before they would be able to do any damage. We know all of this for sure because Jim LeBlanc accidentaly tested it for us in 1966 during a failed test for a new spacesuit in a vacuum chamber. He was exposed to a nearly perfect vacuum for at least 25 seconds and survived with just a temporary bad earache and no permanent damage at all. Stanley Kubrick did his homeworks and knew of it when he was directing 2001 Space Odyssey in 1968, but apparently he was the only one as most other movies botch this things completely.
I was blessed twice in my life to operate in the NASA Space Station EVA suit for about four hours each time in the early days of designing, developing, fabricating and building the the Space Station hardware. First time at Marshal Space Flight Center in the Neutral Buoyancy Test Facility and later at the NASA Houston NBL. They were long days getting into the suit, acclimated then going into the water and working through the Timeline of events while attached to the end of the Canada Arm. At the NBL we were doing EVA operation on the Z1 Truss to Lab Ammonia Cable Tray working the tray and Cable Quick-Disconnects. We were also doing Battery Box ORU remove and replace operations. What an incredible opportunity to work with these fantastically capable engineers and techs and to later see how it all played out in space as the NASA astronauts assembled the real deal on orbit. Thanks to all the wonderful people who made this happen!

Cleo, you have no idea how important this video is! Our excitement for Space has died down so much, and it's sad. The ammount of stuff we'll learn from Space Exploration will be marvelous. So thank you! This video was real fun :)
The new space race is just kicking off, so keep an eye on the near future. With Artemis and other amazing things happening, I am hoping the general excitement for space picks up :)
I can only imagine if funding to nasa and space exploration was fully funded over the past 50 years. We'd probably have habitats on Mars, with some cool new technology developed along the way.
I am 67 yrs old and you had me in tears of joy and a little envy. The first job I remember ever wanting was to work at NASA. I never did but this video gave me an insight I never had. Great work Cleo and team!
The spacesuits look like an engineering marvel, and it's amazing how Axiom and NASA aim to make them more accessible and sustainable. This is undoubtedly a giant leap for mankind.
The most impressive part to me was how readily an untrained person was able to operate it. It's a reminder that it's not just the technical bits of how each part works but getting them all to work together with that degree of ergonomic freedom.
I really hope you do a live stream of the launch to the moon, whenever that will be. Maybe even with guests, I just feel like having this level of enthusiasm and energy on that historic day would be invaluable.
Its interesting to see because on your Modern day Commercial dive hats like the Kirby Morgan we have a nose block that has the same function but its on a rod you can retract and engage.
I love that "the moonwalk" is just mandatory. When humans are on the moon again, I would absolutely love to see a video of an astronaut actually moonwalking on the moon. The perfect blend of silly and awe inspiring.
Its amazing to see the kind of access to the most ultra high tech stuff you are able to get Cleo (F1, Quantum computing and now this). Props to you for making it all accessible to us all. Keep doing the good work. :D
One of the lead designers of NASA's EVAs was giving a talk on Insider a while back, always referred to the suits as 'spacecraft' makes sense. Also from what she said it makes sense why they're so difficult to manufacture and why they were so advenced for their time! I'm curious as to how EVAs have advanced in terms of digital tech, because the original suits had some digital data readouts on the top of the chest piece when you looked down and these new ones don't seem to have them That equalizing nose piece is genius. You can't pinch your nose like you do while scuba diving!
The way she described it seems like what would get if pressurized one of those full mascot outfits, since they can also have bigger proportions than the wearer.

For pee, they have a urine collection device and maximum absorbency garment, the former is basically a bag with a tube connected to your pee parts, and the latter is an expensive adult diaper. As for itches, the neck ring has a little pokey bit and something called a valsalva device - basically a silicone plug you can block your nose with to clear your ears - both can be used to scratch your nose or face but if you have an itch elsewhere, you just kinda have to wiggle and hope lol.

Can't wait for SpaceX's version being a success (which technically just a more refined, more glam up, more modern version of the Mercury suits) maybe by A3 NASA will get 2 type of suits...
@@Alex-zi1nbThat’s the nature of such a small field. Companies like Axiom and SpaceX are trying to establish a commercial space industry. For decades, all advancements in this field have been lead by NASA. Commercial companies (as opposed to contractors) can’t just start doing stuff on their own because they don’t have the knowledge, expertise, or infrastructure necessary. I don’t think the average person knows just how much NASA held SpaceX’s hand because they weren’t very public about it. Axiom’s partnership with NASA has been more public is all.
Two things I wondered: 1) How much does the suit restrict your field of view? I imagine it's not a lot, but it doesn't seem like you can look down a lot 2) How does the texture of the outside if the suit feel like? It looks like a though fabric
The EMUs on Station right now don't contain the joints necessary to walk in any sort of gravity. They would be wasted complexity and an unnecessary failure point. Just a fun fact for everyone.
This was one of the coolest site visits you've done. It's always great to watch nerds share their creations with others. They wear their pride on their faces so transparently. Here, it's not just, hey, I built a thing. Here, it's hey, I built this thing for humanity so that we can keep exploring. This is about boldly going. This is properly huge if true territory. Thanks for sharing your adventure with the rest of us and big ups to Axiom for recognizing the opportunity to reach a different audience.
I once had to wear a mascot costume for 30 minutes at work and I had a panic attack so bad I had to take the rest of the day off. I am very impressed with this science communicator who managed to survive a full on space suit.
This video, together with the one Destin of @SmarterEveryday did at the 'pool' showing the training and testing the astronauts do (under water) is just mind blowing as far as what is required to travel to the moon and what we as a species can achieve if we don't fight each other....
This is a very very naive view of history.... Did it ever occur to you that we went to the moon BECAUSE people fight each other? The moon represents a strategic advantage... And it still does. Why do you think China is so interested in the moon?
She looks like such a bad ass in that suit. It is a handsome looking suit isn't it? I think Elon is going to give them a run for there money still, though. The guy is just brilliant and he surrounds himself with super qualified people at the cutting edge of the aerospace field. He is not held back by the "but we've always done it that way and its a safe choice" kind of mentality. He eagerly looks at new ways of doing things pass or fail. Then moves on quickly from failure without fear of more failures holding him back from continued advancement. It's never about "good enough" for Elon. Its always how can we do it better. And then implements that at break neck speed. I am often shocked at how quickly Space X opperates. In the end Elon and Space X have carved their names large in the history books and with an exclamation point to boot. Theyll be talking about him a thousand years from now and more. Virtual immortality. I wish I had just a hundred more years to watch our interstellar existence evolve. Its going full bore exponential now. Our tech advancement is coming down to months and days not decades and decades. And it is only getting better. Can you even imagine? Proably, but not the full scope of what is coming. Its a GREAT time to be alive!
I'm really impressed to see how far science and technology have reached till these years. Its also surprising to see how the number of people knowing these technologies has increased drastically.... Thank you so much for sharing this video with us.
Your comment about how many people it takes to make all this work is on point. I’ve worked on the SLS rocket of the Artemis Program for 12 years now, and it brings me to tears just how passionate every worker is about their small contribution to something much larger than themselves. Thank you for sharing a new side of this program with me ❤
I’m huge fan of your content! Your ability to simplify and explain complex topics is truly impressive. Could you please consider making a detailed video on quantum computers? I'd love to learn more about how they work and their applications. Thanks for the fantastic content you provide!

I'm so glad you decided to go this route and share your journalism in this way. You really pick some cool stuff to do that I don't see anywhere else, and your sense of wonder and enjoyment of technology is very enjoyable to watch.

They will be easier to move in. The SpaceX EVA suit is tethered to the Crew Dragon for lifesupport, like the 1960s Gemini suits. That SpaceX EVA suit is a step between the existing flight suits and a future SpaceX EMU suit that will likely look a LOT like the Axiom EMU, due to physics.

Another misconception about what would happen of you were magicaly teleported to space without a spacesuit is that your blood would start to boil because the pressure would drop below the boiling point of water at body temperature.
That simply would never happen because your blood vessels (or skin and connecting tissue in general) are a lot stronger than you might think, they would stretch but not by much and definitely not enough to drop the blood pressure below water boiling point. Basically your skin would become your spacesuit, keeping yourself together.
Even embolism wouldn't be a problem because if you were able to quickly return to normal pressure (maybe repressurize a faulty airlock) they would disappear immediatly, and if you were to remain in a vacuum or near vacuum too long even then they would hardly matter as you would pass out and then die by hypoxia way before they would be able to do any damage.
We know all of this for sure because Jim LeBlanc accidentaly tested it for us in 1966 during a failed test for a new spacesuit in a vacuum chamber. He was exposed to a nearly perfect vacuum for at least 25 seconds and survived with just a temporary bad earache and no permanent damage at all.

2) How does the texture of the outside if the suit feel like? It looks like a though fabric
The EMUs on Station right now don't contain the joints necessary to walk in any sort of gravity. They would be wasted complexity and an unnecessary failure point. Just a fun fact for everyone.
This was one of the coolest site visits you've done. It's always great to watch nerds share their creations with others. They wear their pride on their faces so transparently. Here, it's not just, hey, I built a thing. Here, it's hey, I built this thing for humanity so that we can keep exploring. This is about boldly going. This is properly huge if true territory. Thanks for sharing your adventure with the rest of us and big ups to Axiom for recognizing the opportunity to reach a different audience.
I once had to wear a mascot costume for 30 minutes at work and I had a panic attack so bad I had to take the rest of the day off. I am very impressed with this science communicator who managed to survive a full on space suit.
This video, together with the one Destin of @SmarterEveryday did at the 'pool' showing the training and testing the astronauts do (under water) is just mind blowing as far as what is required to travel to the moon and what we as a species can achieve if we don't fight each other....
This is a very very naive view of history.... Did it ever occur to you that we went to the moon BECAUSE people fight each other? The moon represents a strategic advantage... And it still does. Why do you think China is so interested in the moon?
Yet most blow space off as a waste of money.
We need Cleo on the moon 2030!
Yes!
23:24 was waiting for one of the engineers to go “want a spot bruh?”
I feel like you and Destin have a lot of cross over, would love to see you guys collab!
The animations in "how you would die in space" part was really cool and pleasant.
She looks like such a bad ass in that suit. It is a handsome looking suit isn't it? I think Elon is going to give them a run for there money still, though. The guy is just brilliant and he surrounds himself with super qualified people at the cutting edge of the aerospace field. He is not held back by the "but we've always done it that way and its a safe choice" kind of mentality. He eagerly looks at new ways of doing things pass or fail. Then moves on quickly from failure without fear of more failures holding him back from continued advancement. It's never about "good enough" for Elon. Its always how can we do it better. And then implements that at break neck speed. I am often shocked at how quickly Space X opperates. In the end Elon and Space X have carved their names large in the history books and with an exclamation point to boot. Theyll be talking about him a thousand years from now and more. Virtual immortality.
I wish I had just a hundred more years to watch our interstellar existence evolve. Its going full bore exponential now. Our tech advancement is coming down to months and days not decades and decades. And it is only getting better. Can you even imagine? Proably, but not the full scope of what is coming. Its a GREAT time to be alive!
Cleo's joy, wonder and awe is so infectious that I was smiling for the whole video. Great job, Cleo!
I'm really impressed to see how far science and technology have reached till these years. Its also surprising to see how the number of people knowing these technologies has increased drastically....
Thank you so much for sharing this video with us.
Watching the clips of the astronauts on the moon just jumping around and having fun puts me in such a happy mood 😄
Thank you for paying homage to us engineers. Much appreciated.
Cern, Red Bull, Space suits, ISS next? And then the moon!? 😂
The ten year old wanting to be an astronaut in you was very present, super episode! ❤
Your comment about how many people it takes to make all this work is on point. I’ve worked on the SLS rocket of the Artemis Program for 12 years now, and it brings me to tears just how passionate every worker is about their small contribution to something much larger than themselves.
Thank you for sharing a new side of this program with me ❤
I’m huge fan of your content! Your ability to simplify and explain complex topics is truly impressive. Could you please consider making a detailed video on quantum computers? I'd love to learn more about how they work and their applications. Thanks for the fantastic content you provide!
Try and get into the new SpaceX suit next!
thanks Cleo i look forward to more videos as someone who was a child during APOLLO AND HAS BEEN WAITINGFOR A NEW MOON MISSION MY WHOLE LIFE.
9:28 - changing MAGs
"I feel like a extremely technological and sophisticated squirrel!" 😆
Okay, Axiom has impressed me. Let's give them Boeing's job too.
😂
There are emu's in outer space? I knew it.
Your show should be used in school science classes.
Lol. Nice joke!
Don't tell the Aussies...
How many doors open up this smile? 😍😍
She is legit the most adorable human being ever.
I do not mean that in like a “coming on to you” type of way. She is just literally bursting with cuteness like a child lol it’s so fun watching her videos … her joy is so contagious
“… for thirteen hours …”
Cleo: “I’m wearing a diaper and I can’t scratch my face.” 😅😅😅
That realisation alone. 🙃🙃🙃
No scratch & sniff then 😭
The animation part starting at 3:45..... 🤣well done.
11:42 gave me chills
How same
I still don’t know which one I enjoyed watching more.
The space suit? Or your joy wearing it ?
♥️
Congratulations cleo🎉❤
I'm so glad you decided to go this route and share your journalism in this way. You really pick some cool stuff to do that I don't see anywhere else, and your sense of wonder and enjoyment of technology is very enjoyable to watch.
Now we need Cleo in a spacesuit driving an F1 car! 😆
In Switzerland!
At CERN
So happy for you Cleo. It was pretty obvious how much this meant to you.
That hip knee and ankle mobility might allow for the highest jump of a human ever. Thatd be cool to see.
fantastic vid! your gleeful smiling when in the suit had me both laughing and jealous! well done :)
Can all the astronauts get their own personal colors like power rangers
No, the mission suits will be white. Each suit will have distinctive markings, so they can be told apart from each other while on EVA.
I always love watching the videos of astronauts jumping on the moon going "boing :D" so I hope this Artemis 3 plan goes well
Why did the space teddy bear cross the road? Because it was ewoked to explore the other side of the galaxy! 😅

It's always worth waiting for your episodes ✌🏻🤩
.

I have a question what about tears and how they are managing it in latest designs. Cause there was an incident earlier on ISS which caused Astronaut Chris Hadfield going blind cause of tears.

Huge Fan of Huge If True*
Fan of You and Your all team as well...!! Hope I will get a chance to meet you all once in person somewhere down the line in future.
.

Eagerly waiting for Hoodies & Caps of Huge If True as you shown in last episode ❤❤
.

Keep inspiring us and keep growing 💪🏻🤟🏻
I have to admit, I really felt your excitement!
And fastest?! You gotta be proud!
Thanks for letting us come on this adventure
Damn this girl lands the sweet gigs. Good for her!
i hope i live to see the day humanity takes the military budget and spends it on space ex instead
Literally anything other then spacex 💀🙏🏾
not the company, gd friggin bozo
Great video!!!!
What about visiting the new SpaceX EVA suits?
They will be easier to move in. The SpaceX EVA suit is tethered to the Crew Dragon for lifesupport, like the 1960s Gemini suits. That SpaceX EVA suit is a step between the existing flight suits and a future SpaceX EMU suit that will likely look a LOT like the Axiom EMU, due to physics.
There is ano SpaceX EMU suit. Yet
@@steveaustin2686 yeah, true, but I think that in two years they will have suits like the ones from Axiom and they will be less voluminous, for sure
@@ErnestCF I would not be soo sure. Physics can only make the suits to a certain thinness and still work.
I would LOVE to visit SpaceX.
The nose pressure equalizers kool!
Anyone know the name of the song in the background at 25:00?
Music Bed. Tim Fox is credited for the music in the description
Sorry. Tom Fox
Hey, maybe do something with astronaut-in-training "Alyssa Carson" and talk about Mars, I'm sure that would be a great episode
Your joy is infectious and even making everyone at the station smile. Never stop being a ray of sunshine ❤
Kneeling with the suit reminds me of trying to pose a Gunpla in a kneeling position XD
really? 90% of Americans? ...uh...you meant "American Astronauts" right? LMAO
So using Celsius from the metric system but then PSI for pressure? Damn imperial units
"Mom, my mag is full"
