What makes NASA’s spacesuit crucial for surviving in space and how it protects astronauts

The NASA Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit is a vital piece of equipment for astronauts performing spacewalks. It protects them from the harsh environment of space, providing thermal insulation, radiation shielding, and impact resistance. The EMU also includes a life support system with oxygen, carbon dioxide removal, water, and temperature control, ensuring astronauts' survival during long EVAs.
