Own Set of 8 Limited-Edition Discovery STS-119 Silk Covers
Produced by Colorano, these covers honor Space Shuttle Discovery’s 36th mission, STS-119. They highlight different aspects of the mission and the astronauts that took part in it.
Popular Colorano covers feature “silk” cachets that are produced through a special screening process and then bonded to the envelope. The cachets picture various events of STS-116 surrounded by a golden border. The covers bear patriotic US stamps and cancellations marking the dates of each event.
STS-119 was launched on March 15, 2006, and returned to Earth on March 28. It flew to the International Space Station, where it delivered a truss segment and solar arrays and batteries. The additional power generated by the solar arrays along with a water recycling system that was installed allowed the crew aboard the ISS to be increased from three to six. During the mission, the crew received a call from President Barack Obama. One of the astronauts who had traveled to the ISS aboard Discovery remained, while Sandra Magnus, who had spent four months on the ISS returned to Earth in the space shuttle.
These covers would make a neat addition to your collection. Order yours now.
