Scarce right-handed Phase VI Space Shuttle glove, complete with the exterior TMG (Thermal Micrometeoroid Garment), internal restraint assembly, and internal bladder. Sewn inside the wrist is an ILC-Dover tag, reading: "Item: Phase VI Glove Assy Right, Part No. 0106-110106-, Serial No. 6038, Size 6BY, Spec 0106-110106, CEI No. 106, Code Ident. 74897, Contract No. NAS9-97150." Further ILC-Dover tags identify the TMG, restraint assembly, and softgoods subassembly, with the TMG tag struck through in red felt tip and marked "Scrap." The TMG—the outermost layer of the spacesuit—provides insulation, radiation shielding, and protection from micrometeorites that could otherwise puncture the suit. It features a gray silicon palm and fingertips, a handback flap, and built-in electronics for supporting a remote power supply for an active fingertip heating system (on/off pull strap and cables intact). The internal bladder, which has been filled with silicone to maintain the shape of the glove, is made of a green urethane material and designed to maintain pressure in the EMU glove assembly, while not limiting the finger joints and wrist gimbal. In fine condition.
