Own Your Own (Replica) ISS Module

Posted by timothy on from the nice-treehouse-dude dept.

AMD-lover writes with word that you can purchase a museum-quality replica of the Destiny laboratory module used on the International Space Station. "Keep in mind the weight of approximately 20,000 pounds and the dimensions of 29 feet by 15 feet. But with a price of $1,650,000.00, it is really a steal."

    In my life I have had a chance to buy some pretty odd things, some I bought some I didnt, of the many things I didnt buy there are a few that haunt me, a 1971 Superbird for 5 grand in 1988. and a full scale repilca of the Mercury Capsule in about 1985 for $800 , I dont think anyone except the flight engineers could have told it wasnt real, the fellow that built it spent 15 years building it then passed away, I had a chance to buy it and almost did, but I couldnt imagine where the heck I was going to put it, it was heavy as hell. I wonder what ever happened to it what a work of art
