Should we interpret the outfit of the three Russian cosmonauts, who arrived Friday, March 18 on the International Space Station? Dressed in yellow and blue gear, they were the subject of much comment.
The three Russian cosmonauts arrived on Friday, March 18, in the International Space Station. To everyone’s surprise, they were wearing overalls yellow and bluein the colors of the Ukrainian flag. During an exchange with his family, one of the cosmonauts sowed doubt. “We could choose our outfit (…) and we had accumulated so much yellow fabric that we had to use it. That’s why we wear yellow”explained Oleg Artemyev.
In reality, the combinations, very sophisticated, and already used in the past, are prepared months in advance. Yellow and blue are also the colors of the University of Bauman (Russia)the place of study of the three Russian cosmonauts. When they arrived, they in any case kissed without distinction the four other American astronauts present on board. For NASA experts, the war in Ukraine should not affect space cooperation.
