Objectives of ten or 20 years from now, like building #lunar settlements, exploring mineral deposits on the #Moon and efficiently repairing #SpaceStation modules can only be achieved using #robotics. Due to possible disruptions in normal operations, like a small #meteor shower damaging the #robot, or hacking carried by a hostile group or state, humans 
must be ready to step in.
Modern #spacesuits will be a key foundation of this collaborative relationship. https://www.astronomy.com/space-exploration/the-upgrades-to-spacesuits-that-need-to-be-made-sooner-rather-than-later/

Is the future in #spacesuits or in #robots?

Pictures of the new #Artemis #moon #spacesuits have dropped -- and they are RAD!
I was a little sad to read that the final version will likely be all-white, but that will help make the suit safer and more comfortable for the #astronauts
Also below, for comparison, the 1969 spacesuit (in action)!

So #AI will subdue us by hacking our #spacesuits and learning to edge us into complete submission.
At least this version of the apocalypse seems to be fun.
Last week I told my husband that I have an ugly sweater holiday work party to go to and I'm stressing about it because I don't have an ugly sweater. He didn't really say anything back. I figured he wasn't listening. Then today he surprised me with this and I love it. It's totally not ugly though! #nasa #spacesuits #space
