To be crystal clear, this isn’t NASA’s Moon suit—it’s Axiom’s. Kearney said Axiom will retain ownership of the suits, even during the upcoming Artemis missions. What’s more, the company can even solicit commercial customers who may wish to use the suit, she said yesterday at the unveiling. “Think of it more like a rental car,” Kearney said. “Axiom will be providing the hardware for both training and for flight” and the company “will bring that hardware in, and we, NASA, will utilize it and operate it on the surface of the moon for our moonwalking.”
