U.S. Spacesuit Knowledge Capture
Spacesuit
Knowledge Capture Program
The
NASA U.S. Spacesuit Knowledge Capture (KC) program has existed
since the beginning of 2008 and was designed to share historical
spacesuit information with engineers and other technical team
members to augment their understanding of the spacesuit, its
evolution, its limitations, and its capabilities.
Many subject-matter experts have provided lectures, and some
were interviewed to help bring the spacesuit to life to ensure
lessons learned will never be lost. The U.S. Spacesuit KC topics
have included lessons learned from some of the most prominent
spacesuit experts and spacesuit users including current and
former astronauts.
The events have enriched the spacesuit legacy knowledge from
Gemini, Apollo, Skylab, Space Shuttle, and International Space
Station programs. Also, expert engineers and scientists have
shared their challenges and successes to be remembered. During
the program’s existence, more than 65 seminars have captured
spacesuit history and knowledge; those that are available at
this site have been approved for public release.
