‘In 2019, an all-women spacewalk was canceled because NASA’s space suits were originally created to only fit male bodies and therefore, did not fit the women. The BioSuit™ was designed to give astronauts of all sizes the ability to travel into space, and most importantly was developed by a woman.’ #BioSuit #DavaNewman #Mars #LivingInSpace https://www.media.mit.edu/events/tell-me-more-living-in-space/
