Space Center Houston - The Space Suit Collection

 

Space Center Houston has an extensive collection of space suits that have been used throughout the space program and they really are marvels of technology when you consider they had to protect astronauts in space where the smallest defect could result in disastrous consequences.

Among this collection the actual space suit worn by Pete Conrad on the moon during Apollo 12, the second manned landing on our celestial neighbor, and you can even see some of the gray dustiness that came back on the suit from the moon.
