Portrait of an astronaut piloting a Manned Maneuvering Vehicle (MMV) above the lunar-like surface of a small asteroid. A hybrid between a space suit and a small spacecraft, the MMV provides a comfortable shirt-sleeve environment for exploring the airless, microgravity environment of a small asteroid.
