Thermal Shuttle Tile... was created by Tonybwf
Hi all,

i recently purchased a piece of thermal tile from the "columbia" i was very disappointed when i received it because its tiny!! so just advising if anyone is into space memorbilia email before you buy to get the dimensions...on the plus side it wasnt expensive! A friend of mine has a piece of the mercury capsule heat-shield its pretty cool to have a piece of space history...hel never part with it :twisted:
Regards
Tony

Failure was an option for Columbia's tiles Tony.

You seem to like failures.
