One of Adam's very first spacesuit replica projects was a NASA Mercury program Navy Mark IV pressure suit, but the materials he chose to recreate its iconic silver fabric have since completely deteriorated! That's why Adam is so thrilled to unveil his newest Mercury suit replica, constructed by costumer Christine Knobel (who worked on Adam's xEMU concept suit). Adam couldn't be happier with this latest iteration, and commences work on weathering the suit to make it look as if it's been part of the space program since the 60s.
