Across 30 years, the Space Shuttle program launched dozens of flights of its five orbiters, writing a new chapter in the history of space exploration. During these missions, astronauts ran experiments, made astronomical observations, launched satellites, and performed other tasks in pursuit of knowledge of outer space. Columbia was the first mission-flown shuttle, kicking off three decades of the program.
This specimen is a mission-flown nose landing gear tire fragment from the Space Shuttle Columbia (OV-102). Serial number verification against public information indicates the tire was removed from service after Columbia's 13th mission (STS-52).
The tire fragment measures between 0.5 to 1cm long and ships within a clear coin case attached to an informational display card. The Mini Museum Seal of Authenticity is included on the card!
