Is anyone working on one of these? I've never done serious costuming, but I'm pretty good with my hands. I think I'll start collecting screencaps and other pics and see just how much I'll be biting off...

I have seen one before over at the Starfleet 1701st. A lady named Susie made it for the Vegas Con. I think there was a possibility that they either found the right fabric or something very close?
Here is another image of her suit:

Hope this helps!

Wow, she did a great job! Right behind the helmet lens, I figured sourcing the fabric was gonna be the next biggest problem. Thanks!

That is a sweet space suit done by Susie. I want one. (I'm starting to realise, I'm becoming a prop geek and want everything :S )
You should definitely have a go at making one of these.

A Space Jump suit would be awesome. 
I really want to make one of the red cadet uniforms too...

I've been looking over some screencaps, and I think the clear part of the helmet was added in digitally. I've heard they do that, to get a clean performance, and I cant find any shots in the making of stuff on the dvd where there is a lens.
What do you think would be a good pattern for the suit? Everything I've found has been too baggy.

I think they might have made the black part of the helmet from a motorcycle helmet. And, I noticed some tracking marks on the making of stuff, so I'm sure the lens was added digitally.
Like this, they probably had to remove the padding too
where they cut the face area out above the snaps. Here's a screencap.
You can see the green tracking points here as well.
