Original Note:
Incorrect and misleading. The astronauts spacesuit was keeping him alive, not the MMU. The MMU was a spacecraft strapped to his back that had thrusters to move around. If the MMU had failed, he wouldn't just die, the space shuttle would simply pick him up. https://airandspace.si.edu/collection-objects/manned-maneuvering-unit-mmu/nasm_A20010176000 https://www.nasa.gov/learning-resources/for-kids-and-students/what-is-a-spacesuit-grades-k-4
