Extravehicular Space Suit, 1965


Model of the EVA (Extravehicular) suit worn by Edward H. White II in the Gemini 4 mission of 1965. The extravehicular suit differed from the regular Gemini suit in three ways: an extra layer for thermal and micrometeoroid protection was added, as well as two external visors and a strain relief zipper. The basic Gemini suit was a close-fitting, full-pressure suit with an inner layer of rubberized material covered by nylon.
