Ordering Multiple Patches

 

I have made some adjustments to the shipping options. Due to major increases in USPS First Class international rates, international customers have the ability to choose non-tracked shipping to bring their cost down. The option for tracked is still available at the new, higher rate. (First class USPS package with tracking to Europe is now $15)

I will still have to manually refund you for combined shipping when you place an order with multple items.

Green Thumb On Orbit

I was inspired by Scott Kelly's ability to revive the Zinnias on the ISS, so I put together a concept patch to commemorate it. While it has been made known that this isn't the first flower in space, it may be the first non-food flower? I was thinking of expanding the name list on the patch to include other astronauts who have grown flowers in space: 

  • Viktor Patsayev and Vladislav Volkov (Salyut 1): Flax
  • Valentin Lebedev (Salyut 7): Arabidopsis thaliana
  • STS-51: Arabidopsis thaliana
  • Leonid Kadeniuk (STS-87): Brassica Rapa
  • Don Pettit (ISS-30/31): Zuchini and Sunflower
