Corgi Space Shuttle Space

Includes stand

Launching for the first time in 1981 as part of the Space Shuttle Program, the Space Shuttle is a Low Earth Orbital spacecraft responsible for the manned orbital launch and re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere. Making history as the first reusable spacecraft, the Space Shuttle became the first spacecraft to transport communication satellites to and from orbit. On various missions the Space Shuttle has launched crews between 2-7 members, transporting them within the Orbiter, and boasts two solid rocket boosters.

Operational between 1981-2011, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s initiative produced five of the spacecraft, and completed 133 successful missions within the program’s lifecycle.
