>>191572164> explain your reasoningI'm using the absolute heaviest possible numbers that NASA gave. The space suit, in its heaviest weight ever, was 185lbs, according to NASA. There's some evidence from NASA that by the time the mission actually happened that the suits were much lighter, with tests showing that the subjects were amazed at how much they'd improved them.
But I don't even need to go into that, I'll take the most conservative possible numbers.
185lb suit, with a 185lb man, divide it by 6 for 1/6th earths gravity and you get 61.6 recurring. None of the astronauts should have mentioned feeling weighed down by their suits, and some of them infact didn't. Some of them said that they could move very easily in the low gravity, whereas others mentioned being worried about falling over should they be unable to get up again, or how hard it was to lower themselves down 12 inches from a ladder because of the great weight.
