NASA’s new space suits are delayed, making a 2024 Moon landing ‘not feasible’
NASA’s development of new astronaut space suits will be nearly two years late and nix its effort to land humans on the Moon by 2024, an inspector general report released on Tuesday found. Those delays compound a daunting set of schedule challenges NASA already faces — from the development of its new human-rated lunar lander to getting its massive Space Launch System rocket off the ground.

An audit from the agency’s Office of Inspector General said NASA is on track to spend more than $1 billion on space suit development by the time its first two suits are ready, which would be “April 2025 at the earliest,” the report said. “Given these anticipated delays in spacesuit development, a lunar landing in late 2024 as NASA currently plans is not feasible.”

Or they never had it. Cool looking space suits are pretty easy to design for Earth sound studios and the desert.

Re: NASA’s new space suits are delayed, making a 2024 Moon landing ‘not feasible’
For years I have used the impossible retro rocket landing, and the bogus space suits in my moon hoax arguments. Back in the 90's I was involved in a space experiment at the Ft Collins vac chamber lab. My little invention required operation in a hard vac, a space hardened xenon ion thruster power supply.

To operate a hard vac chamber of any size for any duration is REALLY tough. And to perform experiments in one is insanely tough. Naturally we all asked if any human had EVER been inside one of the very few? No, no one had ever.

Now I get the argument that "Flight suits" exist, and can be tested at less than hard vac. But a MOON suit would need to be a full on "Space Suit". Operate for extended times in a truly hard vac.

WE always knew this was nearly impossible. Word was that no one had ever even tested one.

So this admission by nasa so many years later is only the tip of an enormous iceberg of lies.

Any torso shaped pressurized tube will have huge forces; and then you supposedly can bend over, or worse, rotate!

Simple math:
Pressure 4.3 psi (per nasa)
Thin guy, 40 inch waist = 130 sq in

Results in ~550 pounds trying to force your legs off your torso inside a simple "space suit". No matter what mechanism you dream up, you are not going to walk around like normal.
