Axiom Space and Prada Unveil the AxEMU LCVG

Axiom Space and Prada unveiled the Liquid Cooling and Ventilation Garment (LCVG) designed to be worn by astronauts inside the Axiom Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit. Engineered as the high-performance inner layer of the AxEMU, the LCVG is built to protect astronauts from the unforgiving environment of space, when they explore the lunar surface for the first time in more than 50 years. The LCVG collaboration draws on Prada's expertise in design, patternmaking, and advanced materials, resulting in a next-generation garment developed through advanced 3D modeling techniques that maintain cooling and ventilation while enhancing comfort during up to eight-hour spacewalks. Prada's firmly established knowledge of high-performance materials has also supported the identification and sourcing of specialized fibers that allow the garment to be worn repeatedly and comfortably across long-duration missions. #Prada #AxEMU https://www.youtube.com/@AxiomSpace Subscribe to Prada’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Prada Follow Prada on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/prada/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@prada Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/prada X: https://x.com/Prada
