Of course! That's why NASA puts it in the suits and that is why a lot of dead astronauts return to earth.

What is solution of airless space?

An astronaut's space suit contains a tank of oxygen( like a diver ) that allows him/her to withstand the airlessness of space. the oxygen tank is located at his back and he is able to control it with the chest pack at the front of the suit. the chest pack also enables him to control the temperature inside his suit.

How do they prevent the glass of the astronaut suit to get misted over?

The inside of space suits are temperature and pressure regulated. Contrary to popular belief, the primary design problem of space suits is not keeping the astronaut warm, but rather cool. Conduction and convection do not occur in space, so the only way an astronaut can shed body heat is through a liquid coolant system that eventually radiates the heat away into space. Without the liquid cooling suit worn underneath the space suit, they would sweat to death in about 20 minutes.


Who invented the space suit?
