Human Spacers are a special breed, even more than the astronauts of other species. Not natively linked to the computer brain that is creating the meld of humand and machine planetside, they are fiercely independent, prone to peculiar kinds of superstition and over time have evolved a culture, language and philosophical worldview of their own.
This depicts a female spaceship crewmember under gravity, in the lightweight Uniform commonly found on human government ships, military and civilian alike. The Uniform is comprised of two parts, a shirt with two-way stretch, body-actuator-interfacing, moisture wicking fabric on chest, sides and back, as well as around the wrists. This serves as contact point for the survival suit computer, which is the intermediate layer on all spacesuits.
Arms and shoulders are made of a heavier, abrasion and dirt resistant fabric. Elbows are padded, and pockets for tools and other tidbits are mounted on the biceps.
The Pants are made of the same heavier fabric, with additionally reinforced knee and lower leg portions. There are BAI-fabric panels mounted on the back of the pants, as well as on the insides of the shoes, which have slide-lock type linkages for slip-on spacesuit shoes. Large pockets, internally mounted belt and zipper-attached exchangeable parts are provided.
Externally the pants feature a PALS-type attachment strip around the waist.
On her left hip she carries her PDLS (Personal Dosimeter and Lifesigns Surveyor), which is worn by all crewmembers at all times while shipboard.
By her leg the emergency acceleration retainment strap can be seen, which is used when moving about the maneuvering ship to prevent oneself from being turned into a projectile when the ship changes velocity vectors or comes under fire. Contrary to popular belief, they do not serve the purpose of protecting the crewmember from harm: outside of grav-couches, the accelerations experienced aboard a maneuvering warship can be lethal. The strap merely serves to retain ones body in one place for later evacuation.
The strap attaches to a rigid retainment gear on the back of the uniform that provides some rigidity and serves to confine injuries to crushing and breaking, rather than twisting.
The shoes are of a leather-synthetics combination, smooth surfaced and with skateboard-tape style soles and upper parts for better retainment of foot bars. As said before, they are also designed to mount into the unisize spacesuit shoes based off standard templates, commonly found aboard human ships.
Usually, spacers carry one or multiple watches, both of mechanical and electrical type to provide redundancy in emergency situations: You do not want to be outside of your gravcouch when the boost countdown hits zero after repairs.
I could go on endlessly, but I'll leave it at this for the moment. More to come in the future. Far, far away future.
