Apollo 11 Lunar Extravehicular Gloves

Description

The gloves had a protective outer shell of metal Chromel-R fabrie with thermal insulation. The blue silicone rubber fingertips provided sensitivity. The inner glove has a rubber pressure layer with a built-in restraint system. The gloves attached to the spacesuits in the same way as gloves used inside the spacecraft. Neil Armstrong is one of those who wore this glove.
