Publisher's Synopsis

Spacesuits have been as vital a factor in getting man safely to the moon as launch vehicles and spacecrafts. Dramatic photographs from the Smithsonian's collection and never-before- published historical images of spacesuit development and testing expose their fascinating history. From the initial designs of the 1930s to the spacesuits worn during the landmark Apollo-Soyuz programme of 1975, these incredible creations are documented in detail.
