This lot features a collection of items signed by astronauts: Judy Resnik, Buzz Aldrin, John Glenn, John Glenn Jr. and Tom Stafford among others. The signature of Judy Resnik is an especially difficult one to obtain as she died when the Space Shuttle Challenger was destroyed during the launch of mission STS-51-L. Resnik was the second American woman in space. She was also the first Jewish American in space and the first Jewish woman of any nationality in space. The IEEE Judith Resnik Award for space engineering is named in her honor.
