NASA Astronaut Robert L. Stewart "uses his hands to control his movement in space while using the nitrogen propelled Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU)" as he orbits above Earth in February 1984. "He is floating without tethers attaching him to" NASA's Space Shuttle Challenger (STS-41B).
An image of Bruce McCandless II, who in 1984 made the first ever untethered spacewalk using just his Manned Maneuvering Unit. The spacewalk didn't utilise any umbilicals and McCandless controlled his movements through his hands.

In 1984 astronaut Bruce McCandless is seen floating above Earth. He is farther away from the safety of his spaceship than any astronaut had ever been. This was made possible by a jet pack on his back called the Manned Maneuvering Unit. After testing the unit he was able to free-fly 320ft away.

Is there any rules for units armed only with hand held weapons?
Doing up a few figure for a very British civil war and I'm using figures like the BUF and the LDV from warlords operation sealion range and I've noticed a good few I'd the figures are armed only with pikes, crow bars, hammers, etc. Is there any rules for such figures? Similarly, is there any rules for figures with antiqued weapons?

All this pandemic shit is temporary. . . . . but the Wu-Tang is forever. But seriously, stay strong all my peeps. I floated to Covid today and held a woman's hand while she tried to sob on 12L of high flow. The misery even on a tele-covid unit is everyday.

(Just posted to FB page "California Big Game Hunting") Info on hand-held GPS units?
Is it worth getting a handhled GPS unit or just sticking with your phone and OnX. Was considering the Garmin Inreach since you can send messages but the fucking subscription is definitely too much for how little it will be used. If I did get a handheld would it be better to also have the Onx chip inside or just use as is?

💙 Just look at this absolute unit… It is the two month homecoming anniversary for this sapphire tyke (and how far he has come)! Raleigh’s latest and greatest maneuver is flying a lap around the place and landing in my hand. ✈️

These two are such strong units but are held back by their lack of good partners.
