Personal Equipment, Armor and Consumables

Civilian Standard Pressure Suit

When going into space, most people do not think about violent decompression, Dangerous Radiation Levels and Freezing on one side and burning on the other.
To keep it that way, Civilians going into space are Strongly Recommended to Wear these Protective Suits. They keep the body compressed, have a emergency Beacon, a pop-up Head Cover with breathing and re-breathing system, Magnetic Boots and Hands and a little bit of Maneuvering Thrust. This Sounds like alot but overall its barely thicker then thick pants and jacket. There are large Transporters that have the Personal Transport Capsule seperate from the Ship systems and can, in an emergency ensure the Safety of its Passengers. These Systems arent Perfect.

 

Military Standard issue Undersuit

Nearly Everyone that goes into Space Wears one of these. They provide Minor Protection against Energy and Ballistic Weaponry, Magentic Boots, Mag Pull Gloves, 1 Hour of EVA, Re-breathing System, Climate Control up to +100°C and -200°C and IFF Beacon. They are fairly Skintight, and are designed to not limit Movement whatsoever. They are rarely taken off, only when the Ships are deep in Controlled Space, its Common to not wear them and instead just the uniform that is above it, Regardless.

Military Uniform

Uniforms are all purpose, Low Maintenance Outfits above the skin or Undersuit in Space. Its Water and Oil Repellent, Minor Self Regenerative Capabilities, Rip and Tear Resistance, Minor Ballistic Protection an generally Comfortable. They are Usually a Boots, Pants, Jacket/Shirt/LongSleeve setup.

Personal StarNet/ExtraNet/InterNet Uplink, Information Device, I/O Interface "Second Soul"

Regardless of Standing or Wealth, every single person has one of these. These are, in its cheapest version merely a little puck that can interface with all the information but you need a interface to actually access the information. In the Highest spheres a little implant directly attached to the Users Mind allowing for Private Browsing Information, Query Searches of things you forgot, setup meetings, Monitor your Vitals, your Implants, your Vehicle etc. The Second Soul is your Digital Soul, Your Information attached to you in a Format easily interfaced with the Collective Knowledge of the Milky Way Galaxy. These Second Souls are so Standardized that even through a Rough Civil War, Following Normal War and Subsequent Cold War, all sights still agree on a Standard on these and introduce newer ones all as one. It is far too useful for everyone to have a System that can interact with one another to not do it.

Steeltools Inc. Survival Tool.

A relic of the past that somehow survived all odds. The „colony stick“ is a Multi-tool designed by Steel tools for second and third wave colonization efforts. While Specialized tools were also brought, after the initial phases Colonists are less willing to lug around tools just to not need one. The Survival tool was used for welding, cutting, soldering and Self defense. Yes, the survival tool also was a gun. A Plasma Bolt thrower with no aiming system. But intrepid hunters quickly adapted and added laser sights, some uplink Glasses and all sorts of other addons. The Mark 1 was very successful since it ran off the internal battery and was easily chargeable. But the Mark 1 had a few issues. Battery life was short, had the aforementioned aiming issues.
The Mark 2 remedied a lot of these issues, added a integrated uplink, a few more tools, made it even more Widespread.
