Carbon Costume astronaut
Anya from Mouthwashing
Anya is the medic aboard the ill-fated Tulpar spaceship in the horror game Mouthwashing. She has a difficult time taking care of Curly after he is disfigured in the crash which damages the Tulpar and puts the remaining crew in peril. Anya has dark hair which she wears in a shag. She also wears a blue jumpsuit, white socks, and brown sandals. Add a medical sticker to the front of your jumpsuit so everyone knows your role.
Rex from Space Cadet
Space Cadet is a new Prime film starring Emma Roberts as Rex. The film follows the story of Rex, a party girl from Florida who mistakingly gets put into the NASA space program, but stands out with her unique qualities.
To dress like Rex in her casual outfit, wear a pearl-embellished denim jacket, embellished shorts, metallic pink boots, and a customized hat and tee. To create the shirt, take a white tee and cut strips up to a point you’d like the shirt cropped. Then, using fabric or acrylic paints, paint on similar designs with lettering on both the blank hat and shirt. For the blue coveralls, wear your hair up and wear a blue NASA/ space jumpsuit costume with accessories like a charm necklace. She also often has tinsel in her hair.
Lars from Go Jetters
Lars is a member of the Go Jetters, a group of four heroes who travel the world in the British animated children’s series. Lars is the resident expert mechanic who can fix just about anything. Even though he’s British, he loves the Eiffel Tower in France. His catchphrase is “Geographic!”
Mark Watney from The Martian
Mark Watney (played by Matt Damon) is the unfortunate protagonist of both the book and the film The Martian. A sand storm leaves him stranded on Mars when the rest of his crew has reason to believe he’s dead. It becomes his mission to survive until they come back and rescue him.
While a full astronaut’s suit might seem like the most obvious costume for Mark Watney, it’s not his most iconic outfit from the film. That honor belongs to the clothes he wears while terraforming the inside of his habitat so he can grow crops.
The outfit is very simple and consists of light grey slip on shoes, grey cargo pants, a blue henley, and an official NASA sweatshirt in navy. Safety goggles and blue gloves can be added to recreate specific scenes when he was working with the soil. To really round out the costume, though, you’ll want to bring a few potatoes with you. And maybe some ketchup. Because Mark Watney will be the first to say that potatoes are always better with ketchup.
Among Us
Hm, red is looking kind of sus. Among Us is a multiplayer game about teamwork and betrayal. Similar to “Mafia” or “Push the Button,” one of your fellow astronauts is an impostor. As crewmate, your is to complete all your tasks, but as the impostor, your goal is to sabotage and kill everyone. Made for both mobile and desktop, the game has amassed a huge following this year, with 300,000 players per day and #1 in Simulation on the App Store. This costume requires some DIY for painting the helmet and dyeing the suit. While yellow is featured in this guide, you can swap out for the color of your choice. If you want to be an impostor, you can brandish a bloody prop knife and splatter some fake blood on the costume.
Howard Wolowitz
Despite a highly successful career as an engineer and astronaut, Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) gets mocked constantly by his friends in The Big Bang Theory. He considers himself a ladies man, but that female attention comes mainly from his mother.
