On the 7th February 1984, astronaut Bruce McCandless flew a Manned Manoeuvring Unit (MMU) completely untethered from the Challenger Space Shuttle.
This illustration reflects the sublime, the awe and fear of that moment. It gives the silence in the void a shape. The astronaut isnβt just in space, theyβre being slowly swallowed by it.
