NASA Space Shuttle Discovery completed 39 missions before its retirement in 2011, more than any other spacecraft in history.

This highly detailed diecast metal model of Discovery comes prebuilt and features accurate markings. Plastic stand is included. Recommended for ages 14 and up. Model measures about 4.5"L with 3.125" wingspan. Weighs 9 oz. Imported.
