Every spacesuit humans have worn in space, from Yuri Gagarin's SK-1 in 1961 to the suits being built for the next Moon landings. What each suit is called, what it weighs, how long it lasts and where it is used, starting with the suits in service in 2026.
Every spacewalk is logged automatically. The full record since 1965, with counts by suit, station and year, is on the spacewalk tracker.
The 12th spacewalk of 2026 and the 286th at the International Space Station (US spacewalk 101).
Agencies usually confirm a spacewalk one to two weeks ahead. It appears here as soon as one is scheduled, with the crew, the suit and the start time.
The suits in use now: three for spacewalks at the two stations, SpaceX's commercial spacewalk suit, and five worn inside the spacecraft for launch and landing.
Spacewalk counts update themselves after every spacewalk. Launch suits show their latest and next flights from the launch schedule.
The suits being built for the Moon and for the stations that follow the ISS.
From Yuri Gagarin's SK-1 in 1961 to the orange Orion suit in 2026: every suit worn in space, with what it weighs, who made it and what it did. Sort, filter or compare any two on the full list.
The pioneering suits of the Apollo era and before. The Apollo A7L carried twelve astronauts across the Moon between 1969 and 1972, and its lessons on dust, mobility and cooling shape the suits now being built for Artemis, such as the AxEMU.
The main suits side by side: type, mass, operating pressure, endurance and status. Plus how a spacesuit actually works: the layers, the life-support backpack and the water-cooled undersuit that keep an astronaut alive in a vacuum.
The missions that shaped spacesuit history, from Polaris Dawn, the first commercial spacewalk, to the privately funded Polaris programme it belongs to.
The private stations planned to follow the ISS will need spacewalk suits of their own. Axiom's AxEMU is being built for both the Artemis programme and low Earth orbit, including Axiom's own station.
