 Axiom Space has unveiled a new spacesuit, designed in collaboration with Prada. The AxEMU (Extravehicular Mobility Unit) is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of space travel, including extreme temperatures and lack of oxygen. The suit's outer layer was developed by Prada, which brought expertise on high-performance materials and sewing techniques. The AxEMU will be worn by NASA astronauts on the Artemis III mission to the moon in 2026.
