Description

In collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution, Corgi, the venerable diecast metal toy manufacturer, have collectively produced a scale replica, diecast metal collection of renowned aircraft and spacecraft displayed in the Washington, D.C. based Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. Designed in England to exacting standards with extraordinary detail and quality that will satisfy any ardent aeronautic or space enthusiast, the Smithsonian Collection by Corgi is perfect for older children and novice collectors.

The Smithsonian Collection by Corgi Discovery Space Shuttle, which measures approximately 3-7/8-inches long with a 2-1/8-inch wingspan, is a period correct, accurate reproduction of the actual spacecraft, and features detailed graphics and markings. A Display Stand is included.

According to the Smithsonian, exploring the wonders of space, both close to earth and beyond, has been the dream of humankind for centuries. The first true spaceflights took place in 1959 with the crewless Sputnik Satellite but commenced manned flights shortly thereafter in the early 1960s, culminating with Man's first steps on the moon in July 1969.

Over the years, many subsequent iconic spacecrafts have been launched to take humankind's dream even further, with the ability to house both crew and scientists on board.
