Adam Savage Explores the Science-Fiction Spacesuits of FBFX
When Adam was recently in London, he visited the headquarters of FBFX, the makers of spacesuits for films like The Martian, Prometheus, and Alien: Covenant. There, we examined up-close the insane details that make up these spacesuits, and learn how they’re designed and put together from sorted bins of individually crafted and weathered parts.

That stuff inside the yellow suit is exactly the same as the babymatresses for my twins. They’re called Aerosleep.
They are utterly beautiful pieces.
I’m assuming that they either thoroughly frisked or turned Adam upside down and shook him on the way out of the building?
Adam mentions that they have to address similar problems with real space suit designs. Any chance you might get an up close visit with the new SpaceX suits?

It was a kickstarter back in 2014.
