SpaceX unveiled May 4 long-awaited EVA suits that will be worn on an upcoming private astronaut mission. The company revealed the suits, which are modified versions of the pressure suits worn inside the Crew Dragon spacecraft by astronauts but which will now allow astronauts to perform spacewalks. The suits feature changes ranging from improved joints to a helmet with a heads-up display. The four-person Polaris Dawn crew will wear the suits on their mission, now scheduled for launch in early summer, with two of the four exiting the capsule for a brief spacewalk.
