Talk:Advanced Crew Escape Suit

message: These people  suggest that ACES stands for "Advanced Crew Escape Suit". At the very least, this article (which is currently called "Advance Crew Escape System Pressure Suit") should really use "Advanced" rather than "Advance", unless there is a more weighty source to attest otherwise. -Ashley Pomeroy 14:35, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

message: "The ACES suit was first worn by U.S. Air Force pilots in the mid-1970s, replacing a similar suit worn by SR-71 and U-2 pilots, and was identical to the suits worn by X-15 pilots and Gemini astronauts. Unlike the ACES suit, which is a full-pressure suit, the high-altitude suits were partial pressure suits, thus requiring a rubber diaphram around the wearer's face."
High altitude suits? It comes out of nowhere. --Gbleem 04:19, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  partial pressure suit 

message: The infamous photograph of the space suit helmet found after the accident revealed that the recovered helmet was attached to the suit and the visor was down--indicated by the "lockdown" bar going across the bottom of the helmet, where it connects to the ring. Both the pressure faceplate and the sunshade were missing, indicating that they were destroyed either by the hypersonic wind blast when the pressure module was destroyed or by the intense heat. Sources? At least a link to that picture! // Duccio (write me) 17:13, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing references 

message: I've found two conflicting sources (both internet) and none from NASA.
STS-64 - Astroanutix
STS-68 - PubMed.gov
On NASA's mission summary page for both STS-64 and 68 I couldn't find any mention of the ACES. But I manged to find several sources saying it was first used on a mission in 1994. None of the crew portraits from 1994 seem to show them with the suit. Not until the 1995 STS-63 mission do I see it pop up in a crew portrait.

thread_title:  First mission used on 

message: The suit being used on that project is very similar. Same manufacturer, similar glove grips, glove locks, helmet and outer layer.--Craigboy (talk) 18:37, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
