Newly tested penguin leather clothes put on space

(Scientists have developed a tight-fitting t-shirt for astronauts to avoid osteopathy when in the air.

They hope that this thin, lightweight rubber material will replicate the effect of gravity on the human body.

Without the pressure of gravity, the astronauts' bones could be stretched up to 7cm, while the muscles and nerves were also stretched to cause pain.

Scientists from King's University, London are gradually improving this suit based on the design of the Massachusetts Institute of Research to put into experiment in space.

Because bones and muscles often work less in keeping astronauts upright as soon as they go into non-gravity, this can be a waste of sight. All of these factors can make them long recover their state and suffer from some health problems when returning to Earth.

The researchers also said that these problems even pose a greater challenge for implementing other noble missions, such as trips to Mars.

Dr. David Green, Senior Lecturer in Human Astrophysics - King University, who is working on this outfit, told the BBC: 'When a person takes the first steps First up on Mars, the chances of this person dying by a hip fracture are huge '.

Italian and American seamstresses have joined the international team to create clothing that fits into the body from many layers of this elastic material.

This material is woven in two dimensions, which can slowly create tension and tighten the body from the shoulders to the wearer's feet.

Astronaut Andreas Mogensen of the European Space Agency will be the first to wear the suit during his trip in 2015.

Penguin clothes

Accordingly, Dr. David added, if he received the nod in approving the suit in 2015, the astronaut Tim Peake could wear this outfit during his trip to the international space station. right in 2016.

The implementation of leather suits to help astronauts fight micro gravity is not a new idea. Russian scientists had similar ideas with penguins or Pinging in 1991.

However, scientists are trying to make new clothes, better simulating gravity as well as making the wearer feel more comfortable.

Dr. David hopes that this new outfit as well as Pinging will have the immediate therapeutic effect on Earth. It is expected to be more meaningful to care for problematic patients as well as to help develop limbs regularly. This, will be made more applicable in the near future.
