There's a lengthy article on the manned maneuvering unit in last week's
Aviation and Space Technology Week (January 23, 1984).  It covers in
detail how the astronauts trained for the mission, and there are some
photos of the training aparatus.  They showed a mockup of the Solar
Max satellite - I was surprised to see how large it is.  For some 
reason I had the idea that it was about the size of a breadbox  (rather
than an elephant).
