These suits are on screen a little longer and seen much more clearly than the Russian Cosmonaut who dies in episode 1, as viewed through a TV monitor, and blogged previously.
Anyway, what we are looking at here is a "ventilation suits", as seen in various other films, shows and pop videos of the time. This looks like its been lined and padded and has had a few extra details added such as silver cuffs and some forearm controls buttons. It's an impressive job!

Deep Impact, of course. So obvious I assumed there must be something lurking in the files waiting but not yet blogged. But there isn't. What an oversight ... that has now been sorted.
