NASA will wear high-tech Prada long johns to the Moon
The Verge·June 7, 2026
NASA astronauts will wear high-tech undergarments designed by Axiom Space and Prada during the Artemis IV mission to the Moon in 2028. The Liquid Cooling and Ventilation Garment (LCVG) is a base layer that utilizes cold water circulated through embedded tubes to keep the crew cool and comfortable. The LCVG also features a backup system in case the primary cooling system fails, providing an added layer of safety. This advanced garment will be worn underneath the Axiom Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit during spacewalks and other extravehicular activities.
