@KeithStouten @YigalLevin Is this for real because it actually is stunning 🤣

I had never seen the Soviet Krechet spacesuit, developed for the Soviet Moon expedition, this close up and in such detail.
Holy shit, the dieselpunk level is unreal.
I mean, if the Americans flew and landed their spacecraft with a full-fledged computer on board, the Soviets were supposed to fly basically on mechanics and automation.
In other words, straight-up Newtonian: everything as lever-and-vacuum-tube as possible — and the spacesuit is from exactly the same universe.
And yes, in theory, they could have landed the spacecraft, but there was a high chance it would have been a “landing” with no return.
Since the Soviet rocket was weaker, only one person was supposed to land on the Moon, not two as in the U.S. program.
That’s why, in the tests, you can see them practicing ways for a cosmonaut to get back on his feet if he fell.
Because there would be no one there to help you.
It really does break your brain when you imagine a person in this “canvas-pump-and-dial” suit — alone, on the Moon.
But it has to be admitted: yes, there is a certain charm to this kind of extreme engineering minimalism turned up to full dieselpunk.

@deepwebslinger It’s not going to work. The speaker cone is removed (no black cardboard to see in the holes of the speaker). So there is no speaker coil anymore. The lamp is connected to nothing. It’s a scam.

@TaraBull808 I think the story of the tapes will just pass by. There will be no consequences without the media backing it.

@BrianRoemmele This is fantastic. Are plans available to folks who want to attempt to build their own?
