Collection: Historic Spacecraft & Missions

Screen prints are running low! The first human spaceflight in history. Vostok 1 was launched on April 12, 1961 from Baikonur Cosmodrome with Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, making him the first human to cross into outer space. It was also an orbital spaceflight consisting of a single orbit and took 108 minutes from launch to landing. Screen print measures 36"x18" printed in 3 colors by Vahalla Studios. Giclée versions are printed archival with Epson inks. Sizes are as noted in the pull down. The 42"x24" includes a half inch white border.

The Lunar Roving Vehicle was featured on Apollo missions 15, 16, and 17 from the years 1971-72. Each vehicle drove an average of 30km on the surface of the moon and were ultimately left behind upon departure.  Sorry, this is not available as a screened print. The archival digital prints (aka Giclée) are available in a range of sizes including 36"x18" which matches the other screen prints from the Giant Leaps Series. Paper is archival quality RedRiver with ConeColor inks.

6 screen prints left! International Space Station is a microgravity and space environment research laboratory which supports experiments in biology, human biology, physics, astronomy, meteorology, and other scientific research. It is also the current record holder for the longest continuously crewed spaceflight mission now since November 2000. Screen print measures 36"x18" printed in 3 colors by Vahalla Studios. Giclée versions are printed archival with Epson inks. Sizes are as noted in the pull down. The 42"x24" includes a half inch white border.

In only three and a half months, Pioneer became the very first mission to enter the Asteroid Belt to explore the outer solar system. A precursor to the Voyager mission, complete with its own version of an interplanetary message… The mission will soon celebrate its 50th anniversary since its launch in 1972. 

It is impossible to capture the effect that the Apollo Program had on our collective psyche and on the arc of worldwide technological progress in one image. But wear this tee and at least people will know you appreciate it.

Voyager 2 holds the record for most celestial bodies observed in a single mission having flown by four planetary systems. Then of course Voyager 1 also became the first man-made interstellar object with Voyager 2 expected to do the same in 2016. Stickers are 3.5" and circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. 

This mission has been staggeringly successful at Saturn having been inserted into orbit in 2004 and still actively doing science 10 years later. This mission was also a two-in-one as it carried and deployed the Huygens Probe in 2005, becoming the first ever surface landing in the outer solar system when it touched down upon the surface of Saturn’s moon Titan. Stickers are 3.5" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Enough about Curiosity, Perseverance, helicopters, and all these rovers. Viking was first to successfully land on Mars in 1976! Many thanks to Tom Dahl for modeling the accurate landing configuration.  Stickers are 3.5" or 4" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.  

Juno is the first mission to go into a polar orbit around Jupiter. Making it possible for the first time to view the north and south poles of this gas giant.n Stickers are 3.5x3.5" or 4"x4" on vinyl. Appropriate for indoor or outdoor use.

The third design in our series now includes both the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers with the Ingenuity helicopter as a bonus! They are the newest generation of robotic Martian surface rovers. Curiosity arrived in 2012 with Perseverance following in 2021. Their search for past and present life on the Martian surface make them more like mobile laboratories than merely explorers. Stickers are 3.5". Both are vinyl and ideal for indoor/outdoor use.  

Sputnik was the first artificial Earth satellite. It was a 58 cm (23 in) diameter polished metal sphere, with four external radio antennas to broadcast radio pulses. Launched by the Soviet Union in 1957. Stickers are 3.5" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

  NASA's Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) are an ongoing robotic space mission involving two rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, exploring the planet Mars. The missions began in 2004 with the arrival of the two rovers-Spirit and Opportunity-on the Martian surface. It continues to this day with Opportunity still in operation over a decade later. Stickers are 3.5" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Embark on a journey to the outer edges of our solar system with the New Horizons Sticker from our Historic Robotic Spacecraft Series. A tribute to one of humanity's farthest-reaching space missions, this sticker celebrates the remarkable discoveries made by New Horizons as it unveiled the mysteries of Pluto and beyond. Crafted from premium vinyl, Stickers are 3.5" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

  The Rosetta orbiter and Philae lander’s detailed mission to explore a comet introduces to the full series the first non-planetary object as a mission target.  Stickers are 3.5" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

  Galileo at the Jupiter System is poster #9 and the final planned print of the series. The first orbiter to explore the gas giant and it’s rich system of moons.  Stickers are 3.5" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

  The full suite of Giant Leaps stickers Apollo 11, International Space Station, Vostok 1, and Gemini. Stickers are 3.75" round on vinyl. Appropriate for indoor or outdoor use.

  NASA’s Apollo Program successfully sent twelve humans to the surface of the Moon starting in 1969 and ending in 1975. Stickers are 3.75" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

The largest space station ever placed in orbit and visible to the naked eye from the ground.  Stickers are 3.75" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Yuri Gagarin was the first man in space travelled there in Vostok 1 on April 12, 1961.  Stickers are now 3.75" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Gemini helped NASA prepare for the Apollo moon landings with ten crewed long duration orbital flights in 1965 and 1966. Stickers are now 3.75" circular and vinyl. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

The third design in our series now includes both the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers with the Ingenuity helicopter as a bonus! They are the newest generation of robotic Martian surface rovers. Curiosity arrived in 2012 with Perseverance following in 2021. Their search for past and present life on the Martian surface make them more like mobile laboratories than merely explorers.Magnet is 3" circular and Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

In only three and a half months, Pioneer became the very first mission to enter the Asteroid Belt to explore the outer solar system. A precursor to the Voyager mission, complete with its own version of an interplanetary message… The mission will soon celebrate its 50th anniversary since its launch in 1972. Measure is 2.64" x 4” die-cut on holographic style vinyl.

There ARE more than just eight PLANETS! We love Pluto, too, but why do we put all the focus on these particular eight bodies simply because they orbit the Sun? With all due respect to Copernicus, we would like to propose a whole new way of looking at our local celestial neighborhood. Created in partnership with The Planetary Society, the set includes 20 Solar System toy blocks featuring 8 planets, 8 moons, 3 dwarf planets and just one star. The package also includes a special two-sided supplemental fold-out poster that will provide a wealth of additional information about the fascinating worlds in our celestial neighborhood.
