1.4 Astronomy Blog-- "What did the 5 fingers, say to the face?"

A: SLAP!

In the picture, "To Fly-Free in Space", astronomer Bruce McCandless goes on an untethered space walk. At 100 meters from the space shuttle, McCandless was and is the man to go the farthest away from his shuttle while being untethered. He propelled himself with an MMU, which has since been replaced with a safer unit.

COMING THIS WEEKEND-- SPECIAL HALF BLOG ON ASTRONOMY OBSERVATIONS!!!

HOORAYYYY

Stay tuned.
