Capsule (2015)

Its 1959 and a British fighter pilot, who is in command of Britain's first manned mission to space, is stuck alone inside a malfunctioning craft. 

I quite like the sounds of this home-grown offering and shall be seeking it out for a little look-see!
 
Thanks for the tip off Tim.

That's Image Comics if you wanted to know more.  I've only read the first couple of issues so far, got some catching up to do, but I liked what I've seen.

Jupiter Ascending (2015)


Not had the pleasure of this film yet and it's not especially high on my get-round-to-it list either.  Still, this must be one of the most fancy-pants space suits we've seen in recent years, so hats off for doing something a little different

Have a closer look...

The Martian (2015) The Other Spacesuits.

Finally watched the DVD of the film yesterday and.... mmm... 
 
Well the wife liked it, the eldest liked it and even the mother-in-law, who doesn't normally watch "space" films,  seemed to like it too.  I quite liked it but having read the book first I have to say that it seemed to be lacking something.  Perhaps its just the different media but the book seemed more intense, more dramatic and suspenseful.  The sense of isolation and impending doom was much greater read off the page.  Perhaps for once its a case of; telling being better than; showing!
 Which probably all boils down to the fact that I think, if you've not had the pleasure of either version yet, then I would definitely recommend the reading of the book first.

Oh and these are the other more traditional style of spacesuits seen through the film.
