A computer-generated mannequin,an exact representation of the human form in terms of proportions & flexibility,simulates a Hermes astronaut entering a spacesuit. Many alternative designs for the suits,which allow astronauts to work outside in space,can thus be compared economically. Hermes,the European Space Agency's re-usable spaceplane,has a launch weight of 22 tonnes including a 3 tonne payload and crew of three. It will be placed in low earth orbit by an Ariane 5 rocket | |
