A space suit is a protective suit worn by
astronauts and cosmonauts in space. It
provides an insulated, air-conditioned cocoon
in which people can live and work for hours
at a time while outside the spacecraft.
Inside the suit is a cooling garment that
keeps the body at a comfortable temperature
even during vigorous work. The suit also
provides air to breathe.
