View of the suit. Picture 3 of 4. The Portable Life Support System (PLSS) is mounted entirely too high on this suit; the top of the Oxygen Purge System (OPS, the upper-most module on the PLSS) was approximately the same height as the astronaut's helmet, appearing to be somewhat shorter or somewhat taller than the helmet, depending upon how the astronaut and photographer are standing. Also note that the suit is fitted with A6L lunar overboots rather than A7L/A7LB type lunar overboots. From this angle, the Skylab 1 patch can be seen peeking out from underneath the Apollo 16 patch. | ||||
