Summary

This is the stoage bag for Dennis Tito's Sokol KV-2 spacesuit. The spacesuit, which is an emergency rescue suit used for launch and landing, must be ready for use during a cosmoanut's stay on board a space station. This stowage bag keeps the suit in working order and in a confined space when the cosmonauts do not need it.

Dennis Tito donated this bag to the museum in 2003.
