Whew! That probably has to be the longest headline ever.
Its called Demron and is actually a liquid metal that feels like fabric. Confused? Dont be, its apparently the thing thas going to make the manned Mars mission possible since scientists have selected this material to use for space suits. Demron is a lead-free, toxin-free, and PVC-free material that allows heat dissipation and resists chemical penetration and cracks.
This does make it the worlds first radiation proof fabric as well. Its been made by Radiation Shield Technologies. The clunky lead suits that were the only protection against radiation previously did not allow free movement, these make it much more easier for the wearer to be flexible.
