Command Control Pressure Suit
The Command/Control Pressure Suit (CCPS) is designed to be an integral part of the exploration infrastructure. It is simple, rugged, and particularly suited for routine, long-life operation in the harsh lunar environment. A unique feature of the CCPS is the ability of serve as a command/control center or both the suit and attached systems. Astronauts use voice commands to status suit systems, determine time remaining in the mission, and code samples with time and location tags. Equally important, the CCPS is designed to display information on attached systems such as the lunar rover, lunar hopper, even another CCPS.
