This Shuttle Endavour Space Flown Thermal Tile Fragment is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of space travel. This piece of history was part of the Endavour spacecraft that completed multiple space missions.  It now resides in a California museum. This piece was damaged on mission STS 77, 19-29 May, 1996.  It was removed  on 11 March 1997.

This tile was located on the OMS Pod on the aft fuselage. This is a nice example of the silica material the tiles consist of.  It is pure white on all sides.  This is a world-class museum quality specimen!  Do not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity!I will not be offering any others like it.

The tile fragment has been meticulously preserved and comes with a certificate of authenticity, and four pages of detailed documentation. It is a rare opportunity to own a tangible piece of the space exploration era. The item is categorized as a collectible, specifically under historical memorabilia, astronaut & space travel, exploration missions, and space shuttles.  This is NOT debris from the accident that occurred years later. Don't miss out on the chance to own a unique piece of space history.

A superb piece of the white silica tile material.
