Let’s say you lived in the 1950s and wanted to help the U.S. in the space race against the USSR, but weren’t quite smart/cool/aerodynamic enough for the job of astronaut. No problem! You could apply for the job of “space suit tester,” and do your part for the country while looking absolutely ridiculous.

The suits would continue to evolve over time, finally settling into a design that closer matches what we know today. But before we set our sights on the moon, we had our eyes on vacuum tube assembly. And then we quickly realized that the giant bubble suits used to keep vacuum tube assemblers safe while on duty could double quite nicely as moon-walking suits. Or so NASA hoped when they snatched up the design and set to testing it out.

Perhaps the serious lack of mobility led engineers to get a little creative and a lot desperate. At one point, they decided to attempt a new spin on the space suit idea by providing arms and legs that the wearer could place their limbs into for normalish mobility while still having the option to roll around like a giant gerbil.
