How to Solve the Astronaut Backpack Dot-to-Dot Puzzle
A spacewalking astronaut wears a life-support backpack called the Primary Life Support Subsystem. It supplies oxygen, removes carbon dioxide, and helps keep the spacesuit comfortable. This friendly 50-dot puzzle traces the backpack’s top handle, right strap, base, left strap, and upper edge in five manageable stages. Find dot 1 above the handle and follow each number in order.
1–10 — Across the Handle and Right Top
Begin at dot 1 and connect through dot 10 across the handle and upper-right corner. Use short, careful strokes around the handle before following the rounded shoulder.

A fully equipped spacesuit and life-support backpack together can weigh more than 100 kilograms on Earth, though they feel weightless in orbit.
