Item Description
22.5x26.5" frame contains color photo of Titan IIIC space booster rocket that was used by the US Air Force 1965-1982. The wide white border surrounding the photo has been signed in ink by a multitude of those who worked on or w/the Titan at its retirement in 1982. The Titans were a family of expendable rockets used by the US between 1959 and 2005. A total of 368 rockets of this family were launched, including all the Project Gemini manned flights of the mid-1960s. Titans were part of the US intercontinental ballistic missile deterrent until the late 1980s, and lifted other American military payloads as well as civilian agency intelligence-gathering satellites. Titans also were used to send highly successful interplanetary scientific probes throughout the Solar System. Photo and signatures have some slight fading and some scattered age spotting but display remains Fine overall.
