The Spacesuits – Engineering Archive

The Spacesuits is an independent newsletter and blog (by a writer using the pseudonym "Engineer") that publishes deep-dive engineering analyses of spacesuit designs used by NASA, SpaceX, Axiom Space, and other space programs. Unlike mainstream media coverage, it focuses on technical details: life-support systems, pressure garments, materials, mobility constraints, and the engineering trade-offs behind each suit. It has become a go-to reference in space-enthusiast and aerospace professional circles for its rigorous, non-sensationalist breakdowns — especially useful given rising public interest in commercial spaceflight (e.g., SpaceX's Polaris Program, Axiom's Artemis lunar suit). The site archives past issues and serves as a technical reference library on spacesuit engineering history, including Soviet/Russian Orlan suits and NASA's Shuttle EMU.
