JAKARTA - In addition to choosing Axiom Space for this private launch, NASA has also chosen companies to develop spacesuits to run on the Moon or moonwalking, which will be used on the Artemis III program.

The two have just launched a prototype spacesuit made by costume designer For All Mankind, and will be used by astronauts to walk near the South Pole of the Moon.

The design was formed to make astronauts more flexible. It is also more flexible than the previous outfits, and includes exploration-oriented tools.

Equipped with a helmet, which has a light and an HD camera to share experience. To enter the suit, astronauts will enter through the hold in the life-supporting backpack.

With more connections, astronauts can easily knelt and move, while gloves are designed for long-term use in microgravity.

This spacesuit, of course, is designed to deal with extreme cold temperatures in areas permanently overshadowed on the Moon, even up to boots.

The prototype launched is black, but what other astronauts will use is white to protect astronauts from extreme heat.

Launching Engadget, Thursday, March 16, the Artemis III mission is currently scheduled to launch in December 2025. It will represent the first manned lunar landing since Apollo 17 in 1972, and is ready to take the first woman to walk the Moon as well as the first person of color.

The two people who hit the lunar surface will stay there less than a week and perform four moonwalks that include explorer expeditions and ice sample collection.

Meanwhile, two other crew members remain in the Orion capsule that will pick up the crew when they return using SpaceX's spacecraft, Starship.
