It's always a great day when a new piece gets added to the collection. First one of 2019 and #27 for the collection.
879 days in space, more than any other person...….he is a legend and one of the people helping pave the way for longer deep space missions. Our biology is not designed for space so it is an amazing achievement... Mars here we come (one day).
Wow, simply wow. What a devotion to a project. I am always fascinated by and adore people that go this nerdy on something.
Starting off 2020 strong with the 29th piece for the collection. Not everyday I get to photograph a piece with a flown ISS EVA glove during an afternoon visit to ILC the maker of US EVA space suits. In the words of the famous Australian rock band Men and Work...Who can it be now? Fun EVA space suit fact - The EVA space suits used in the Neutral Buoyancy Lab in Houston are actually refurbished ISS EVA flown space suits that have been retuned from the ISS after use.
It was a great 2021 with 5 new additions to the collection and some really nice feedback from some of the signers.
7 years in with the collection and finally a piece for my European friends and first piece of 2022 compliments of the European Space Agency. I think you all will enjoy its story. Spedizione 60/61- Союз MS-13...Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer Repair
Fortis has a long history in space especially on the the wrists of Russian cosmonauts. This recently delivered piece should provide a nice new direction for the collection to explore.
