In his Instagram post, Musk added that this suit was not a mock-up but rather a fully functional unit. "Already tested to double vacuum pressure," he wrote. "Was incredibly hard to balance aesthetics and function. Easy to do either separately." (Double vacuum pressure simply means the suit was probably inflated to twice the pressure of sea level and then put into a vacuum chamber.)

For the record, this is really just an emergency flight suit, not a bona-fide spacesuit.

Here is the Boeing flight suit they introduced a few months ago:

If they are really serious about a space suit, they ought to read my book.

Absolutely gorgeous. Elon has really replaced the hole Jesus left in my life.
