There is a chance that the region between the Earth and Sun might be filled with Aether however, as Fez has mentioned just a short month ago, so, working with him and a few others, I have proposed a specially designed helmet to aid in the function of breathing. Naturally, such high minded men as those who will be joining us on this expedition can not simply walk around looking silly, especially not in front of each other, so a special suit has been proposed as well to match my helmet design, which i have included below.
The helmet shall be made of brass with rubber seals, and a smoked glass visor that we might the Sun without getting our eyes burned. Attached to a pump, the mask will pull in Aether through a vent on the left hand side, filter out the oxygen so that you can breath it, and pump the rest of the Aether out through an exhaust on the right hand side. Much like the modern diving suit, the actual pump will be powered by hand in a large contraption, connected to the various helmets by lengthy hoses. All the same, the pumping mechanism will be on sledges so that it can be moved around once we reach the surface of the Sun.
The suit will look similar to the fashionable and practical waistcoat-jacket-gloves combination that can be seen about London, subtly sewn together on the inside to prevent the parasites known to traverse the Aether from entering through the sleeves or pant leggings. To match the brass coloring, the suit will be made with cloth-of-gold designs etched into the stitching, the main coloration being light browns and beige.
