NASA Engineers Work on New Spacesuits

http://www.happynews.com/news/3242007/nasa-engineers-work-new-spacesuits.htm

NASA is trying to design new spacesuits that would be suitable for use on the spacestation, the moon, and mars. The spacesuit much function in very low and high temperatures, shield the astronaut from radiation, and function with very little power. Scientists hope that the new spacesuits will be smaller and lighter than those that have been used previously. NASA is hoping to have the first prototype completed by 2010 and have them ready for use in 2014.
