After more than 25 years of US astronauts wearing off-the-rack clothes while living in Earth orbit, a company working to launch the world's first commercial space station has adopted a more custom approach to its crew attire.
Vast has revealed its astronaut flight suit, a two-piece outfit designed to be worn both on and off the planet. The company also certified a custom-Swiss wristwatch for use aboard its upcoming Haven-1 space station.
"Over the last two decades on the International Space Station, astronauts have moved away from wearing flight suits every day," Drew Feustel, Vast's lead astronaut and former NASA mission specialist who spent 225 days in space, said in a statement. "The environment has become safer and more like how we work on Earth."
