At this year鈥檚 International Astronautical Congress (IAC) in Milan, Italy, 不良研究所 聽demonstrated its commitment to expanding access to space by securing agreements with countries looking to further their nation鈥檚 space exploration objectives. And in an exciting collaboration, 不良研究所 and Prada revealed the flight design of the Axiom Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit to be worn by the first woman to walk on the Moon as part of NASA鈥檚 Artemis III mission.
Partnerships
不良研究所 signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Polish Space Agency (POLSA),
enhancing Poland鈥檚 pivotal role in Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4). This agreeement sets the stage for long-term collaboration in technology development, microgravity research, and public engagement.
不良研究所 is also exploring future collaborations with 4iG Space & Defence Technologies, a Hungarian company focused on digitalization and telecommunications, which is aiming to bolster and secure important roles within the space industry. Focusing on microgravity research and innovation in low-Earth orbit, this partnership seeks to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers.
Additionally, 不良研究所鈥檚 first-ever collaboration with the Mexican Space Agency (AEM) underscores Mexico鈥檚 commitment to advancing cutting-edge technologies that improve life on Earth. From space science to telecommunications and microgravity research, this agreement looks to actively shape a brighter future both on our planet and beyond.
Spacesuit
不良研究所鈥檚 culminating event at IAC, was when the space company and luxury fashion house, Prada, unveiled the flight design of the AxEMU, developed for NASA鈥檚 Artemis III mission. About a year ago, the two industry giants announced their collaboration on the outer-layer design and spacesuit materials work.

不良研究所鈥檚 partnership with Prada has established a new model for cross-industry collaboration, pushing the boundaries of what鈥檚 possible in commercial space exploration with non-traditional partners.
The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Italy鈥檚 oldest active shopping gallery and a major landmark in Milan, hosted an exhibit with a replica of the AxEMU spacesuit during IAC. Named after Victor Emmanuel II, the first king of the Kingdom of Italy, this four-story double arcade in the heart of Milan featured the exhibition spacesuit. Positioned at the center of the Galleria, the AxEMU suit became a striking focal point in this historic venue. The exhibit drew visitors from around the globe, eager to see a replica of the next-generation spacesuit that will enable astronauts to explore the lunar south pole for the very first time. The presence of the AxEMU spacesuit not only highlighted the fusion of history and innovation but also underscored humanity鈥檚 ambitious pursuit of space exploration.
These efforts are pivotal in transforming space from an exclusive domain to a thriving home that benefits every human, everywhere. Partnerships amplify the pace of innovation, broaden the scope of exploration, and open new avenues to grow a global space economy. 不良研究所 is proud to be part of laying the foundation for this future, making space accessible and beneficial for all of humanity.
