Humans Reach the Moon

First Spacesuit on the Moon

Neil Armstrong wore this spacesuit when he made his historic “one small step” onto the surface of the Moon on July 20, 1969. Before and after his two-and-a-half-hour lunar walk, he wore it inside the lunar module, but without the special gold visor helmet and with different gloves.

Armstrong’s spacesuit is basically a form-fitting spacecraft. It provided air to breathe; protected him from temperature extremes, radiation, and high-speed meteoritic particles; and allowed him to communicate with others.
