Description: This collectible item is a must-have for any space enthusiast. The 1980's NASA Original Space Shuttle Challenger Orbiter OV-99 Wood Fit Check Tile is a piece of history that captures the spirit of space exploration. These wooden tiles were cut to place in the exterior of each space shuttle prior to the placement of their actual heat shield tiles to make sure the pieces were the correct size and fit. Then, the actual tiles would be cut to match the fit check tiles if they were and placed onto the orbiter. This tile was actually glued to Challenger, as is evidenced by the residue on the back of the tile, and the orbiter’s NASA designation code, OV-99. This is a rare piece of NASA history no space shuttle collector should be without. Measures 7.5 x 6 x 1.25 inches, at its longest points given that it is an irregular piece. The tile is in great shape and has been well-preserved, making it an ideal gift for collectors or anyone who loves space exploration. Whether you're a fan of the Challenger or just appreciate the ingenuity and dedication of the NASA team, this item is sure to impress. $25.00 MANDATORY INSURANCE IS THE ADDITIONAL HANDLING COST WITHIN THE SHIPPING CHARGE. PLEASE NOTE THIS BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING.
