Cold Chamber!

Last summer we had some good test experiences in a cold chamber, testing the suit and its Life Support System at -20F. We'll be back in there this coming year for a more controlled test, which will be written up as a technical brief. The three technical briefs so far written can be found here. Photo by A. Magruder.

Alveolar Gas Pressure and Composition

A useful diagram helping me with planning the flights.

New Research Brief Online

Between the thrilling and dramatic tests, there are hundreds of hours of building and planning the pressure suit project. I am organizing the precipitates of this work into research briefs that I archive online in PDF format; you can find the latest by clicking here.

At TEDx Brussels

My buddy Louis-Philippe Loncke is wearing the suit on stage as I describe its function and construction. A good week in Brussels and Toronto/Waterloo!

Video Archive of My Talk at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics

What a week, first at TEDx Brussels (link later), then the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, where I was thrilled to be given an office for the day in the Hawking Wing.
