The Space Shuttle is an amazing vehicle composed of an orbiter, an external fuel tank, and two solid - fuel rockets. The orbiter can carry up to seven crew and 29,500 kg of cargo. Launched by a rocket, it re - enters the atmosphere and glides to land after its space mission. Then it's inspected and maintained for future flights. The two solid - fuel rockets that fall into the sea are recovered and reused. The Space Shuttle has diverse missions, such as installing, repairing, and retrieving satellites, developing solar thermal power plants, making alloys and pharmaceuticals using space properties, building the International Space Station and colonies, and even for military purposes. This model kit is a gem with finely reproduced body parts, interior details, accurate rocket engines, and landing gear. It faithfully recreates the unique design of the reusable NASA Space Shuttle Orbiter that operated from 1981 to 2011. Specifications: Model Length: 185mm, Wing Span: 118mm, Parts: 45 pcs.


Using this Space Shuttle Orbiter model kit is a fun experience. First, carefully take out all the 45 parts from the package. Then, start assembling the body parts one by one, following the general shape of a real Space Shuttle. Pay special attention to attaching the accurate rocket engines and landing gear correctly. When handling the small interior details, use tweezers if needed to avoid dropping or losing them. As for maintenance, keep the model in a dry and dust - free place. If it gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it. Don't use any harsh chemicals as they may damage the finely reproduced details. Also, be careful not to knock or bump the model, as it could break the delicate parts.
