Description
The Astronaut Maneuvering Research Vehicle (AMRV) for use in the Skylab Experiment M509, Astronaut Maneuvering Equipment, is described. The AMRV enables investigation of several maneuvering devices and mobility techniques. The AMRV consists of two maneuvering unit configurations; a Hand Held Meneuvering Unit (HHMU) which provides manually oriented variable thrust control and an Automatically Stabilized Maneuvering Unit (ASMU) which provides fixed thrusters and three selectable attitude control and stabilization modes.
