Melissa Lewis' (Jessica Chastain) EVA suit from Ridley Scott's sci-fi survival drama The Martian. Lewis wore her extravehicular activity (EVA) suit when operating the Manned Maneuvering Unit during the Hermes mission to rescue Mark Watney (Matt Damon).

The EVA costume was based on a version of a NASA suit used for moving outside the International Space Station, and created by costume designer Janty Yates, Scott's long-time collaborator. Yates and Scott have worked together on other sci-fi films, including Prometheus and Alien: Covenant.

The suit is constructed mainly from a white synthetic material and comprises a helmet; a black-and-white skull cap; a torso with a backpack and GoPro camera housing attached; a pair of trousers; a set of gloves with rubber fingertip and palm detailing; and a pair of boots with rubber-sole crampons. Completing the outfit is a mirror fastened to the wrist with a white Elastic strap.

The helmet is made from white metal and features a clear plastic front, a functioning faux-gold sun visor and lights on either side. A chest pack is adhered to the torso and has a metal rig secured to the bottom with working clips and harness components. Velcro orange and white Lewis insignia strips and mission patches are attached across the suit. The skull cap displays a label on the inside reading 'Lewis'.

Electronic components are fitted to the helmet and the chest pack that allow them to illuminate with LEDs. The helmet is powered by a 12V lithium polymer battery (not included) inserted into the backpack and activated by an external remote control. A 9V battery (not included) can be fitted into the chest that lights up the digits on the front with blue LEDs.

The space suit shows minor distressing from use on the production and is mounted to a custom-made display mannequin. Dimensions (displayed): 50 cm x 72 cm x 190 cm (19 3/4" x 28 1/4" x 74 3/4")
