| Feb 5 at 9:51 | comment | added | Hobbes | "To duplicate the physical exertion of an EVA suit pressurized to 4.3 psiA in space, the NBL suits need to be pressurized to 4.3 psiG " Do you have a source for this? The astronauts already have to deal with the resistance of the water, so having the suit pressurized to +4.3 psiG would put the exertion at a higher level than is experienced in space. | |
| Feb 4 at 1:19 | comment | added | Erin Anne | wow, I have complicated feelings on that AP Chemistry NASA+Texas Instruments collab. I think the EVA Injury paper also indicates that the shoulder injury is from 'gravity causes the astronaut to “fall into” the head of the spacesuit, pressing the shoulders into the HUT of the suit' but I can see why you didn't crop Figure 4. Interesting. | |
