bubble helmets

Spherical transparent headwear

Bubble helmets are transparent, dome-shaped head coverings that enclose the entire head, typically made of plastic or glass.

Most associated with space suits and retro science fiction, they provide visibility in all directions while protecting the wearer from hostile environments: The astronaut's bubble helmet fogged up during the spacewalk.

Also used in diving and medical isolation contexts.
