Thanks Bruce! You don’t happen to have photos of the backpack unit worn on the Discovery? It is different than the ones worn on the moon.

I don’t have any photos of the backpack but I could check the high rez stills because that was definitely featured.

I wanted to add this bit of information because most of my suit research on 2001 centers on the Moonbus. The differences between the Clavius Base/Lunar suits and the Discovery One suits are attributed to different missions and environments. Silver and blue moon suits with different O2 and interface modules were designed to be used by moonbase personnel and adapted to lunar conditions while Discovery’s suits were adapted from these designs to function in space.
