Spacesuits in use today are bulky and inflexible, with many layers to contain pressure, protect against puncture from fast-moving space junk with ballistic fibers, protect against changes in temperature, shield the wearer from the glare of a sun undimmed by atmosphere, and dispose of excess body heat, excretions and moisture.
