$125.00

Framed in this acrylic presentation is a cut-portion of a flown-recovered-retrieved parachute of the Mercury Atlas 5 (spacecraft no. 9) spaceflight with Enos, the space chimp, aboard. MA-5 was the second and final orbital qualification flight of NASA's Project Mercury program prior to a manned orbital spaceflight in 1962.

The flown parachute segments were kept as souvenirs by some of the MA-5 orbital spaceflight team. The cut segment below is one of the flown chute's Ringsail fabric that had been retained by the Lacey family from 1961 to 2016. Lacey, an original Project Mercury team member was a cut-portion of, was auctioned off by the U.S. Space Walk of Fame Foundation in Titusville, Fl.
