Astronauts wear white spacesuits in space because white reflects solar radiation and protects against extreme heat, while they wear orange suits during launch and reentry missions because orange is the easiest color to detect in open water if something goes wrong.

Why Spacesuits Are White & Orange π¨Added:
Space suits are typically white, but sometimes they're orange. And the reason for these two different colors is actually really important. You see, the color white protects against solar radiation. So, astronauts wear the white suits while they're in space. But during takeoffs and reentries, they wear orange. This is because rockets travel over the ocean. And if something were to go wrong, orange is the easiest color to detect in open water.
