>Astronauts could soon be able to move more freely thanks to a soft robotic exosuit developed by researchers at the University of Bristol.
>Not only does the technology have extraterrestrial benefits, but it could also help people who need support with their mobility on earth too.
>The soft robotic exosuit is designed to resemble a garment and is mostly made of fabric material. Worn underneath the spacesuit, the exosuit features artificial muscles that work automatically to help astronauts reduce muscular fatigue while maintaining natural movements during future Moon and Mars missions.
