The MMU (Manned Maneuvering Unit).
Bruce McCandless performed the first untethered spacewalk using a jet pack in 1984. This historic event took place during the STS-41-B mission of the space shuttle Challenger.
The first untethered spacewalk was conducted by astronaut Bruce McCandless II in 1984 during NASA's STS-41-B mission. Using a Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU), McCandless ventured away from the safety of the space shuttle Challenger, showcasing the possibility of free-flying in space without being connected to the spacecraft by a tether.
To my knowledge among US astronauts- there was never a fatal accident as the result of a space walk, which is a super-risky encounter. There were problems with the so-called Zip-guns in maneuvering in zero G while doing Space walks- but to my knowledge no fatal accidents, at least among NASA astros. There have been problems as stated- only late in the Gemini program did we achieve ( First Trouble-Free space walk( and philatelic covers heralded this event.
The answer is Nasa. NASA stands for National Aeronautics and Space Administration. NASA is a U.S. government agency that is responsible for science and technology related to air and space. The Space Age started in 1957 with the launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik. NASA opened for business on Oct.

Bruce McCandless (1937-2017) was a Space Shuttle astronaut who performed two of the first untethered spacewalks (EVAs) using the MMU, in 1984. He was on the Shuttle flight that launched the Hubble Space Telescope in 1990. A Naval aviator, he graduated from the Naval Academy in the same class (1958) as John McCain.

NASA sent the Hubble to low earth orbit (320 miles), the crew that sent it there was Commander Loren J. Shriver, Pilot Charles F. Bolden, Jr., Mission SpecialistsSteven A. Hawley, Bruce McCandless II and Kathryn D. Sullivan on the STS-31 mission.
On April 24, 1990, shuttle mission STS-31 saw Discovery launch the Hubble telescope successfully into its planned orbit. The crew was comprised of: Commander Loren J. Shriver, Pilot Charles F. Bolden, Jr., Mission Specialists Steven A. Hawley, Bruce McCandless II and Kathryn D. Sullivan.
