Don't worry asbout Fukushima! NASA has gamma-raiation-proof space suits....DON'T THEY????

FUKUSHIMA - NO SPACE SUITS = NO MOON LANDING

Thread: FUKUSHIMA - NO SPACE SUITS = NO MOON LANDING

If gamma rays were a problem in space, low earth orbit spacewalks like these on the International Space Station would also be impossible. Earth's magnetosphere stops only charged particles, not electromagnetic radiation (e.g. gamma rays).

I doubt they have enough on hand for all of us on this planet.

No, what they are saying is that IF we have these suits that can block all radiation from space, why aren't we using them at Fukishima????

I too would like to know this. Seems like they would at least try it. So the fact that they have not means either:

1) The radiation is SO high that the suits cannot protect anybody

2) NASA lies continue and we never left our atmosphere...

So....fire departments are part of the hoax, too?



There is nothing strange about the pressure suits used by NASA, the ESA, other space-faring nations. You can get a complete description of every part of them with a little looking around. Heck, you can even buy your own -- they are made by a variety of civilian manufacturers, and sold to civilians.

The same technologies are shared with such things as dry suits for ice diving, garments worn by NASCAR racers, and of course the protective garments used by fire fighters and other first responders.

The suit itself would be a bad choice in Fukushima; stiff, heavy, designed to be worn in orbit or in low gravity. Heavily insulated, capable of holding pressure -- none of which would be useful working inside the plant.

What you want is the appropriate technologies, in a form suitable for the tasks at the plant.

Which is what they use.
