“The Right Stuff to Wear”, a New York Times Science Times article about the development of the design and function of U.S. spacesuits which reports on a November 2010 panel discussion on the subject at the National Air and Space Museum and gives notice of a spring 2011 Smithsonian Institution traveling exhibition of full sized photographs and x-ray images of some of the 300 suits in the collection, makes a few points about the condition and conservation of these artifacts.
