Evil Roy wrote: Does anyone know if spare ACES helmets were carried aboard the shuttle? http://neurolab.jsc.nasa.gov/acessuit.htm doesn't give any indication. It isn't clear from the text how generic the helmets are, or how individually sized. I would guess that there would at most 3 sizes, but that's a SWAG without the science. Maybe Rusty has a link to a PDF of a preflight stowage checklist. /dps |

Shuttle ACES helmets
I think the actually question maybe "Was the helmet found lying in the yard
in Texas, on someone's head an hour before?" |

Well, the OP had something in another forum which more specfically mentioned "in case of failure", so I'm not sure how morbid he/she/it is being. If the morbidness is indeed that high, I believe the answer is currently given as "no". AIUI, someone never got around to putting their helmet on. /dps |
