The weather on Mars


can vary dramatically,


requiring a space suit


that makes it possible


for astronauts to


venture out into tem-


peratures as low as


minus 80°F and as high


as 70°F. Under devel-


opment by a lab at


the University of North


Dakota with funding


from NASA, this exper-


imental suit is made


from 350 components.
