A mechanical counterpressure (MCP) suit, partial pressure suit, direct compression suit, or space activity suit (SAS) is an experimental spacesuit which applies stable pressure against the skin by means of skintight elastic garments. The SAS is not inflated like a conventional spacesuit: it uses mechanical pressure, rather than air pressure, to compress the human body in low-pressure environments. Development was begun by NASA and the Air Force in the late 1950s and then again in the late 1960s, but neither design was used. Research is under way at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on a "Bio-Suit" System which is based on the original SAS concept.

  • Der Biosuit oder Bio-Suit war ein Forschungsprojekt des Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in den 2000er bis frühen 2010er Jahren zur Entwicklung eines neuartigen Raumanzugs. Die Besonderheit des Anzugs bestand darin, dass er ausschließlich im Helm eine künstliche Atmosphäre gewährleisten sollte. An allen anderen Körperstellen würde ein spezielles Gewebe aus Latex und Drähten für den nötigen Außendruck sorgen. (de)
