		<description>This is a very old exercise, designed to make you think - there&#039;s no point in giving you the answers since you&#039;ll have to justify them.  btw, the answer above is wrong!&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Cute!
Solar-powered FM receiver-transmitter
stellar map
2 100 lb. tanks of oxygen
50 feet of nylon rope

The food stuff is worthless since it requires opening up the suit.  Can&#039;t do that (unless you have a death wish),so:
food can&#039;t be eaten
water can&#039;t be drunk

Parachute silk has no use
matches can&#039;t burn (no oxygen)
same for signal flares
magnetic compass needs a mag field to work: none on the Moon
Portable heating unit: to heat what? Suit is insulated to Hell and back
Self inflating life raft: name the body of water to be used on
2 .45 cal pistols: good for suicide, at best.  Much easier to open up the helmet.

Now, if you are willing to build yourself a tent with the parachute silk (no tent poles, though) you could trap oxygen from the tanks for a real short time, light a match, shoot a flare (inside the tent!).  Can&#039;t figure out why anybody would do that, short of going mental.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
