Now that the cold war is over, let's relax a little and celebrate humanity's space travel achievements with this charming 1:10 replica. Beeps optional.

Go for the Mir version. One that doesn't need taken down, it just decays and eventually falls to earth. |

Cool. I know people who would go for a whole set of space and astronomy ornaments. They wouldn't both waiting for a tree, though. |

Several series of Hallmark Anglo-American-oriented space ornaments already exist -- for example, Star Wars, Star Trek, and NASA (including Apollo 11 moon buggy and astronaut) -- but so far no Long March booster (though the ornaments are made in China) and no festive red-star-adorned USSR capsules. (Oh, wait, the red star didn't mean Christmas, did it...? Never mind...). |
