This program was NASA's first attempt to develop a new suit design from requirements and concepts. Mr. Thomas will chronical the challenges, developments, struggles, and solutions that culminated in the system that allowed the first human exploration of the Moon and deep space (outside low-Earth orbit). Apollo pressure suit designs allowed the heroic repair of Skylab and supported the first U.S. and Russian spacecraft docking during the Apollo Soyuz Test Project.
