Space textiles are fabrics used in applications like space suits, parachutes, and G-suits. They are made from flame-resistant and durable materials like Kevlar, Nomex, nylon, and spandex. Space textiles undergo specialized finishes to make them resistant to heat, cold, UV radiation, and the vacuum of space. They are constructed using weaves, knits, and other techniques. Some key space textiles include those used in space suits, parachutes, and G-suits worn by aviators.

8. Space suits
 Is clothing used in space crafts
 Is to keep a human alive on the harsh environment of
outer space, vacuum, and temperature extremes.
 Often worn inside space crafts as a safety precaution
in case of loss of cabin pressure.
 Spacesuits have been worn for such work in
 earth orbit
 on surface of moon
 en-route back to earth from the moon

15. Parachute
 Used to slow the movement of a person or object as it
falls or moves through the air.
 Light weight and low volume instruments develop a large
surface area and significant drag upon deployment.
 There are two basic types of parachutes.
 Dome canopy and
 Rectangular parafoil, or ram-air canopy, consisting of
a series of tubular cells.

17. Balloon
 Used to refreshment purpose.

19.  Is form of tightly fitting trousers worn by aviators
 To control the blood circulation at higher level of
acceleration.
 To reduce blood flow to lower side of human body under
the influence of acceleration or deceleration.
 Is composed of inflatable bladders, containing air or liquid
 Can be pressurized using a g-sensitive valve and held firm
to legs and abdomen under higher values of g.
