The Apollo EVA suit system, with the inner cooling garment at left featuring micropiping hand-sewn into it, a drink bladder, and vitals monitoring belt (all shown.) Fun fact: the astronauts choose their own "regular" underwear to wear beneath that garment.Submitted by DweadPiwateWoberts t3_10oaaa3 in space

Pretty sure it's the green suit, although in the pictures I've seen, it's blue and looks slightly different. The white part is the Thermal Micrometeroid Garment - it's mainly for rejecting as much heat as possible and for protecting the airtight suit from pokey hazards (as well as micrometeoroids).
