HMP Research Station Update July 28, 2005

The Hamilton Sundstrand Prototype Concept Suit.

Today provided us with the type of weather you would want a brochure, sunny and warm. Everyone wanted to be outside to enjoy this day. It was also the perfect weather to testing the concept space suit from Hamilton Sundstrand. Pictured to the left engineer Susie Shimamoto tries on the suit for the first time (Click on image for larger version). Over the course of the next week the Hamilton Sundstrand team will test the suit in various scenarios including as part of traverse with the Mars Institute's Mars-1 Humvee Rover. Tomorrow we'll have a photo report of the Hamilton Sundstrand space suit activity.
