Story Musgrave Signed Large Space Shuttle
Endeavour (STS-61) Hubble Telescope Repair Color
Photo, with Signed Letter of Authenticity. An absolutely
stunning 16" x 20" glossy photo on Kodak Endura paper of Musgrave
being raised to the top of Hubble by Canadarm, as it sits in
Endeavour's payload bay. He has extensively signed in black
felt tip: "Hubble touches people. When you are looking that far
out, you're giving people their place in the universe. Science is
often visual, so it doesn't need translation. It is like poetry, it
touches you. I think if we had not repaired the telescope, it would
have been the end of the space station, because the space station
requires a huge number of space-walks. I've never really let go and
celebrated what I did with the Hubble telescope. As Neil Armstrong
said, 'That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.'
/ Story Musgrave". An amazing display piece. Includes Nate
Sanders LOA signed by Musgrave. Top right corner bumped, otherwise
excellent.
