NASA's original plan to demonstrate its new lunar and microgravity spacesuits in 2025 and 2026 is being called overly optimistic and unrealistic. Based on historical schedule averages, Axiom Space's testing timeline could push the spacesuit demonstrations back to 2031, raising fresh concerns about delays to the Artemis moon programme and future spacewalk plans.
Why now: Watchers are highlighting that NASA's ambitious spacesuit timelines are slipping well beyond their original dates.
