It is the sense of Congress that— next-generation advanced space suits are a critical technology for human space exploration beyond low-Earth orbit, including exploration of cis-lunar space, the surface of the Moon, and Mars; NASA should establish a detailed plan to develop advanced space suits consistent with its deep space exploration goals and timetables; and throughout the operational life of the ISS, NASA should fully utilize the ISS for testing advanced space suits. In developing an advanced space suit, NASA shall leverage prior and existing investments in advanced space suit technologies to the greatest extent practicable in order to maximize the benefits of such investments and technologies.
