Due to two tragic accidents in which the whole crew lost their lives, the 'Challenger was lost in 1986 and the 'Columbia' in 2003. The orbiters can remain in space for up to 28 days. The 'Endeavour' was launched for the first time on 7th May 1992. Since 3rd October 1985 the fourth space shuttle, the 'Atlantis', has been used for 26 missions. The 'Discovery' lifted off for the first time on 30th August 1984. The 'Challenger' was launched into space for the first time on 4th April 1983.

Communication and research satellites were transported into space, on-the-spot repairs were carried out and the American space station was built up and provisioned. From 1983 onwards, with the completion of more orbiters, NASA considerably intensified their scientific experiments and strategic military activities in collaboration with the US Air Force. The first space shuttle to be launched into space on 12th April 1981 was the 'Columbia'. This plastic model kit requires paint and glue to complete.

Produced in the EU by a company with over 20 years of tradition.During the mission, new instruments were delivered, and necessary repairs were made. The space shuttle Atlantis serviced the Hubble telescope during the STS-125 mission in 2009. Since its launch, it has become one of the most important instruments in the history of astronomy, providing an incredible amount of data. The telescope was launched into orbit by the space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. The Hubble Space Telescope, which orbits in a low Earth orbit, is named after the American astronomer Edwin Hubble. After leaving service, Atlantis was transported to the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, where it now serves as a museum. The landing of the shuttle on July 21, 2011, after a successful mission to supply the International Space Station, ended the era of the space shuttle. Over the 26 years of service, Atlantis made 33 missions and spent 306 days in orbit around the Earth.

Its first flight took place on October 3, 1985. It was one of the five reusable shuttles that were used to transport people and equipment into Earth's orbit. Build history, piece by piece, with COBI, and create your own collection!Ītlantis (OV-104) was the fourth NASA shuttle to have made a space flight. Intuitive instruction based on clear illustrations will help you easily go through the entire process of a satisfying build. You can display the whole thing using the stand included in the set. The Atlantis features a very accurate reproduction, high-quality prints, movable elements, access to the interior, a figure of an astronaut and a mini-model of the Hubble telescope, combining collector's and educational value.

The carefully designed set includes a model of the Atlantis prepared in a scale of 1:100. The block model perfectly complements the COBI Historical Collection. The space shuttle Atlantis is one of mankind's greatest creations and has made a lasting mark on the history of space exploration.
