their suits are very heavy.
The helmets are part of their space suits. They do not normally wear space suits unless they are going outside the spacecraft. Since there is no air outside and it can be very cold or hot. They need the suits to breathe and to protect them from the heat or cold and the vacuum of space which would kill them.
White reflects more light. Less coolant is needed in the suit.
Astronauts wear special costumes, commonly referred to as "space suits" that protect them from the rays of the sun and gasses depending on which planet they are on. Space suits are airtight and also keep them warm while in the freezing vacuums of space, and cool inthe scorching sun. They wear a tinted glass for their face, not to be blinded by the glare.
The suits that the Apollo astronauts wore were not particularly shiny. They were white and reflected the sun's light and heat. The Mercury program astronauts did wear shiny pressure suits made of aluminium-coated nylon, to provide thermal and pressurization protection. They did not, however, go to the moon as their flights were sub-orbital and low-earth orbital.
Thermal protection - water at depth can be very cold.
Yes, astronauts wear specialized clothing while living and working inside the space station. They wear comfortable clothes for daily activities and special space suits for spacewalks or emergencies. These suits provide protection from extreme temperatures, radiation, and microgravity conditions.
Space suits: to protect astronauts from extreme temperatures, micrometeoroids, and provide oxygen. Extravehicular Mobility Units (EMUs): for spacewalks to enable astronauts to move and work outside the spacecraft. Tether systems: to keep astronauts connected to the spacecraft while working in space.

There is no atomosphere or atmospheric pressure. Without atomspheric pressure the astronauts blood would boil.

They need air and an atmospheric pressurized environment.
Test pilots and astronauts wear special suits to protect them from the harsh conditions of space and high altitudes. These suits provide them with oxygen, temperature control, and pressure regulation to ensure their safety and survival in extreme environments. They also help with mobility and flexibility during critical operations.

Astronauts wear special clothing called space suits to protect them from the harsh conditions of space, including extreme temperatures, radiation, and lack of atmosphere. The suits also provide life support systems, such as oxygen supply, temperature regulation, and communication devices for their safety and survival during spacewalks or in case of emergencies.
Astronauts wear space suits on the moon to protect them from extreme temperatures, radiation, and lack of atmosphere. The suits provide them with oxygen to breathe and regulate their body temperature while working in the harsh lunar environment.
