AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking resources for researching spacesuit design. Participants recommend starting with NASA and Air Force websites for preliminary information. They also mention the potential difficulty in accessing certain research due to its association with private companies or military sources. Suggestions include considering Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to obtain relevant documents. Overall, the focus is on finding reliable sources to aid in understanding the complexities of spacesuit design.

Recently I've started to investigate Spacesuit Design and different aspects of it. I was just wondering if anyone could provide me with some preliminary books or websites that I could use to get my research going, I would greatly appreciate it.

P.S If my post is in the wrong forum just tell me and I'll move it to the correct one, this is my first post on here

Thanks!

A lot of this research won't be the easiest to get ahold of, since it involves private companies or military/federal white papers.

You might want to do some research into submitting FOIA requests.

As far as preliminary information, NASA or Air Force websites might have articles and information you could use.

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Should I submit 860 PGRE?'

Hi everyone! I'm a senior majoring in physics, math, and music, and I'm currently in the process applying for theoretical and computational biophysics (primarily thru physics departments) Ph.D. programs. I have a 4.0 from a basically unknown school in the American South, two REUs (T50 and T25) in computational biophysics and two semesters of research in optics (one purely experimental, one comp/exp) at my home institution (since there aren't any biophysics profs at my school), but no...
