Spacesuit (Mothership Zeta)

The USSA spacesuit is a piece of clothing in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

Characteristics
Designed by the United States Space Administration, the spacesuit is designed to keep the wearer alive in extremely low temperatures and extremely low pressures. Although a spacesuit is designed to block out harmful interstellar radiation, this suit will not protect you from radiation sources. It provides a damage resistance of 1 and has a very high item health (10,000,000 HP). Radiation suits and advanced radiation suits can be used to repair. Although the suit has its own oxygen tanks for spacewalks, if it is equipped before swimming you will still have the normal amount of oxygen, as well as the possibility of drowning.

Location
When you complete the quest Not of This World you will unfreeze people from different time periods. One of them, Colonel Hartigan, died from the thawing, allowing you to loot his spacesuit. It will be located in the pod to the far right.

Behind the scenes

 * The suit is based on either the Project Mercury or Project Gemini spacesuits from the early 1960s. Early previews specifically christened the suit a "Gemini-era spacesuit".


 * At one point during development the suit was to consist of two separate pieces: a bodysuit and a helmet. Though not included in the final release, the helmet remains in the add-on's resources and can be obtained using console commands.

Bugs

 * The suit cannot be hotkeyed.
 * If the Pip-Boy light was active before starting the spacewalk, it will remain active during that sequence, but it cannot be activated by the player during the sequence if it was initially inactive. It can, however, be deactivated.
 * When highlighted in the Pip-Boy, "Equip" isn't lit, though the player can still equip it, most likely because the suit is marked as a quest item; until you finish the space walk then it becomes a normal item.
