Fashion designers and clothing experts are wondering how a new suit might change their industry. The suit is a little of this world - literally. It is a spacesuit that has its own built- toilet. The high-tech garb has been designed NASA engineers to help astronauts deal the call nature emergency situations in space. The new suits are called the Orion Crew Survival Systems Suits (OCSSS). They will be worn astronauts NASA's next-generation spacecraft, Orion, which will venture a lot farther from Earth than previous space missions have gone. The spacecraft will not be advanced enough to reach Mars, but will be able to carry humans the moon and back.
The OCSSS spacesuits will allow astronauts to survive six days emergency situations. The suit is fitted a revolutionary waste disposal system that will allow astronauts to do things like urinate and defecate taking it . Astronauts will also be able to eat the suit. NASA astronaut Rick Mastracchio explained how important and how much a life-saver the OCSSS space suit will be. He said: "Spaceflight is not always glamorous. People need to go the bathroom, even a spacecraft. How is this waste treated such that it does not harm the astronaut or even kill them?" The suit's technology could be used hospitals and the camping and trekking industries in the future.
