NASA unveils new spacesuits for moon mission

NASA unveiled two new spacesuits designed for the space agency's Artemis moon mission to take Americans back to the moon by 2024.

One of the spacesuits, called Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit, or xEMU for short, will be worn by astronauts while exploring the surface of the moon's South Pole.

The second spacesuit, the orange-hued Orion Crew Survival System, is designed to be worn during the launch to the moon and then re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere aboard the agency's Orion spacecraft.

Both suits are designed for improved mobility and comfort.
