Donning a personal spacecraft & departing your "lifeboat" Space Shuttle Challenger @ over 17,000 miles per hour must have been a rush! #OV099

Happy 40th anniversary to the first untethered spacewalk from Astronaut Bruce McCandless II. On this day forty years ago, McCandless, a STS-41-B mission specialist, had the MMU (Manned Maneuvering Unit) strapped on his back and flew into space without any tethers to the spacecraft.

This piece of debris from Challenger is on display inside the Space Shuttle Atlantis Exhibit at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida. I took this pic during my trip to Cape Canaveral in March of 2022. #OTD #STS51L #OV099

35 years ago today the nation mourned the loss of Space Shuttle Challenger and her 7 crew members. May we never forget their sacrifice and the lessons learned from this tragic event. #SpaceShuttleChallenger #NeverForget #NASA #STS51L #OV099
