    Description

    NASA's Mercury Atlas-1. Launched from Cape Canaveral in July 1960, the MA-1 was the first launch attempt of a Mercury capsule.
    This artifact is a fragment of one of the actual afterbody shingles recovered from the MA-1 spacecraft. It is made of Rene 41, an alloy containing nickel, chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, titanium, as well as several other metals. It was designed to withstand tremendous heat generated by reentry through our atmosphere. This piece, deemed non-critical to the reconstruction, was kept as a souvenir by an engineer working on the project.
    Includes Certificate of Authenticity for shingle relic.
    This exclusive limited edition frame measures 11.00" x 23.00" x 0.75".
    Includes a Certificate Of Authenticity.
