In the preceding edit war, the editor who added this post asserted as follows: \\\"It\\\'s quite clear that the air is recycled from the suit. In fact, this makes my former version of this true, as if the suit recycles air the would have unlimited air.\\\" This is manifestly incorrect; a space suit will scrub the carbon dioxide out of your breath and then return the remaining oxygen to its reserve, but it cannot replace the oxygen that you have already used. It allows a given supply of air to last longer, but it will not make it unlimited. The editor further states that \\\"Even if it doesn\\\'t, Mal should have put it on anyways just so he wasn\\\'t running out of air or freezing to death.\\\" While it is true that Mal could have prolonged his air supply by putting on his suit, as established above, it would only be a stop loss measure, and ultimately, it does not effect the overall plot. File it under ContinuityDrift or WhatHappenedToTheMouse if you must. As to the second assertion, see [[SpaceIsCold this]] article.
