NASA is currently designing and developing several exploration EVA (xEVA) capabilities including the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (xEMU). NASA plans to continue maturing the xEMU design and other xEVA operations hardware to enable industry readiness to support an emerging commercial market for Extravehicular Activity (EVA) services, of which NASA intends to be one of the multiple customers. NASA is sharing its xEVA technical documentation in this technical library to facilitate industry access to design and requirements data.
