What's Included
Smithsonian - Lunar Module LM-2
Product code: CS91308
A spacecraft which possesses something of an ungainly appearance, NASA™s Lunar Module is definitely one of the most instantly recognisable vehicles designed by man, thanks to the historic Apollo 11 moonwalk which took place on 20th July 1969. Incapable of flight in earth™s atmosphere, the Lunar Module took humans to the surface of the moon and brought them back to the orbiting Command and Service Module.

Space Exploration Collection - Space Shuttle
Product code: CS91306
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.
Exploring the wonders of space, both close to Earth and further, beyond most human™s comprehension, has been the dream of many for centuries. The first true space flights took place in 1959 with the unmanned Sputnik satellite, but then shortly followed in the early 1960s by the manned flights, culminating in Man™s first steps on the Moon in July 1969.
Over the years since many iconic space craft have been launched to take this human dream even further, with us now having the ability to have craft such as the International Space Station always having crew and scientists on-board.

Space Exploration Collection - Apollo Command Module
Product code: CS91307
Responsible for carrying all three astronauts and the Lunar Module into lunar orbit the Apollo Command module played a vital role in the Apollo 11 landings.
The Command Module was 11m high and 3.9m wide and having taken off from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, on July 16th delivered it™s passengers to their destination in just four days.
On their return to Earth the three astronauts had to spend 21 days in quarantine to ensure they hadn™t contracted a moon disease™. Once finally released a parade and state dinner was hosted on the 13th of August to celebrate the mission™s success. In 1961 President John F. Kennedy had committed to seeing a man land safely on the moon within a decade, and thus his promise to the world had been achieved.
