02. What do the NASA astronauts wear? (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
NASA astronauts wear clothing that is comfortable for them. The Space Shuttle can be rather cold and long pants and long-sleeved shirts are popular with the astronauts; at other times, when the spaceship is in the direct path of the Sun, they wear sports shirts and shorts. Because they are members of a team and dress alike, astronauts wear pants or shorts and shirts that are matching, clothes specially selected by the astronauts and a group of folks who manage clothing for each flight.
