Space sale
Hi, Habr!
The other day at Bonhams auction in New York put up 296 lots associated with the conquest of space by the USSR, Russia and the United States. Under the cut - spacesuits flying into space Game Boy and other interesting lots from this auction. Nothing more, just a photo and some details.
The third-generation Soviet space station Mir, which later became Russian, was the first station of a modular type. It was put into orbit in February 1986, and in March 2001 it was submerged in the Pacific Ocean. The control panel from the MIR orbital station went for $ 9,375, or 333 thousand rubles. To enjoy its view - the photo is clickable, you can even look at the signatures on the keys on the auction site.

But the spacesuit everyone wants, right? This is a space suit from the time of the first manned space program of the USA “Mercury”. The suit was sold for $ 44,000, despite the fact that it is damaged and playing golf on the moon in it will not work.
In the photo - John Glenn during pre-flight training. In that suit.
Of course, not only the American spacesuit was auctioned. In this spacesuit, the legendary Alexey Leonov became the first person to go into outer space. The suit was sold for $ 242,000, or for 8,598,783 rubles.
The event dates back to the 18th of March 1965.
This is the overalls of the Soviet cosmonaut Anatoly Levchenko, in which he worked on the Soyuz TM-4 manned spacecraft. The cost at the auction was $ 5,490, or 195,071 rubles.
Anatoly Levchenko entered the crew as a cosmonaut-researcher during takeoff.
Gennady Strekalov worked in this spacesuit on the Soyuz TM-10 manned spacecraft.
In 1993, the Russian cosmonaut Alexander Serebrov flew to the Mir space station. On board the Soyuz rocket was this Nintendo Game Boy.
One of the three famous boot prints of Buzz Aldrin has not yet been sold. It will cost from $ 20,000 to $ 30,000, in rubles it is from 710,000 to 1.1 million. July 21, 1969, Buzz Aldrin became the second man to walk on the surface of the moon.
