The thermal garment is described by the astronauts themselves in interviews taken while they are putting them on immediatly before missions and by the manufacturer as "glorified long underwear" .
I posted a quote from an essay written by the commander of 13 saying he "wished for some good old long underwear." I post a picture of the "glorified long underwear" he was supposed to be wearing. I say that someone is lying. You say it's " a cryptic remark". If it looks like long underwear, acts like long underwear and the people who use and make it call it long underwear. It's long underwear.
I do believe that you, SAMU, are the one taking things and twisting them. How do you know that maybe, just maybe, Lovell wasn't just wishing for some good old-fashioned long underwear instead of the new-fangled long underwear they had to wear? You don't. I know I've wished for some on some very cold mornings, but I didn't have them, so I made do with what I had.

If you still believe otherwise, provide proof. Just saying it won't make it come true.
