Buddy System Adapted To Astronauts Moonwalks
Apollo 14 introduces the Buddy Secondary Life Support System to share cooling water between two PLSS units during moonwalks. The hoses extend from one backpack to the other, with a four and a half foot tether limiting reach, allowing longer time between reentries by pairing cooling and oxygen supply. Edgar D. Mitchell notes the system helps dissipate metabolic heat and increases the distance from the lunar module.
