"The scariest photo ever taken."
On February 7, 1984, NASA astronaut Bruce McCandless II stepped out of the Space Shuttle Challenger and floated away from everything. No tether. No safety line. Just a nitrogen-propelled Manned Maneuvering Unit and 170 miles of nothing between him and Earth.
It was the first untethered spacewalk in history. The photo, taken by fellow crew members, captures a single human drifting alone against the infinite black. No image before or since has made our smallness feel so absolute.
$ASTRONAUT is a tribute to that moment. No roadmap, no promises — just the void, and the audacity to float in it.
