Space: The Ultimate Wardrobe Challenge – In Pictures
The Guardian presents a visual gallery celebrating the new book 'Space Journal: The Art and Science of Cosmic Exploration' by BBC presenter Dallas Campbell. Published by Thames and Hudson, the book chronicles humanity's perception of the cosmos from the 17th century to the present day, blending archive memorabilia with revolutionary experiments. The accompanying images highlight the evolution of space exploration technology, particularly spacesuits described as 'wearable spacecraft.' Featured visuals include Ryan Nagata's high-fidelity replicas of historical pressure suits, such as Wiley Post's 1934 design and the Apollo A7LB, alongside archival photos of Dr. Robert H. Goddard, Lyndon B. Johnson watching the Apollo 11 liftoff, and physicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell. The collection underscores the scientific, artistic, and engineering spirit driving both past achievements and future endeavors in space.
