The HighTechScience.org space artifact
collection is 99.9% real, authentic items
from space programs around the world. Most
items in the collection have been flown in
space and autographed by the astronaut
and/or cosmonaut that used it. In almost
all cases we even have pictures of the
person signing and/or using the item, whether on the
Earth or in space. |
The collection contains many one of a kind
pieces such as a window assembly from the
MIR's sister ship, a complete custom made
Russian Sokol space suit, and even a
cosmonauts original Russian drivers
license. |

Over the years Richard Newman, the founder
of High-Tech Productions.com & HighTechScience.org, has formed many
relationships with Astronauts, Cosmonauts
and numerous space agencies from around
the world. In fact, we have even received
an out-of-this-world personalized picture
and message which was beamed down
from the orbiting International Space
Station and sent to us.
Many of the artifacts that we
have were specifically signed and/or acquired
by individuals directly associated with
various space programs and then presented to us.

We have received many pieces which
were signed specifically for
Richard Newman from astronauts and
cosmonauts. Most are one of a
kind, flown items used in space
and numerous spacecraft prototype
models.

Most of the items in the space collection
are on display at numerous
museums and part of the collection will be
on a world tour and exhibited at science
centers, museums and symposiums/fairs
around the world. We
have several thousand square feet of
display material, exhibits, artifacts, personalized
space pictures/patches and many flown
items.
We have one of the largest
spacecraft model collections in
the world. Each one is custom
mounted in it's own display case.
Most of our models were originally
spacecraft prototypes which were
built & used by various space
agencies from around the world. |

Each piece of our artifact
collection has its own graphic signage
with explanations and pictures showing
the item in use and the person
signing it. We try to get as many
facts, pictures, and info as possible.
Even the mannequins that we use
for displaying our space suits
& helmets are
authentic. For our Russian high
altitude suit we use a Russian
mannequin. For our Chinese
helmets, we use Chinese mannequin
heads. |
We are also using the latest digital
display frames in our exhibits.
These electronic, LCD panels
continually display hundreds of high
resolution pictures of spacecraft,
astronauts, artifacts, equipment,
planets, etc. |

|
Thousand of hours have been
spent researching and documenting each and
every artifact. We also get information
e-mailed to us from other collectors,
museums, astronauts, cosmonauts and space
agencies from around the world. Almost every item has it's
own web page full of information, pictures
and other related reference links. The web site
itself is constantly being reviewed and
updated as we acquire items and learn more about
each piece.
