However, another suit (the darker one seen above) looks like something straight out of a science fiction epic, complete with glowing chest plate.

In addition to the suit reveals, NASA has also posted footage from recent testing of space suits and vehicles designed to endure the elements that moon mission astronauts will encounter.
