Tschowan spacesuits will be based on Apollo-era suits, but instead of maintainig pressure throughout the whole body, it will only keep air in the helmet, and will use tensile materials to tightly squeeze the rest of the body. This allows for a lighter package, more life support, and as such, a longer duration in space. I think.
