SPACY GIFTS: THE NASA ORIGINAL PUFFY BLANKET & STUFF SACK + ASTRONAUT ICE CREAM

It’s this time to hunt for special present ideas … almost for people who own everything. So what’s about the NASA Original Blanket found @ COOL MATERIAL? I love it! Most people dream some day of going to space. Mission impossible. So take a little NASA home! Rumpl’s NASA edition of the Original Puffy Blanket and Stuff Sack was created in honour of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 13 mission. This spacy blanket combines modern comfort with space age technology: Nylon shell and 100% post-consumer recycled polyester insulation. Heat-reflective 20D nylon shell. DWR finish for stain and water resistance. Cape Clip for hands-free use. NASA space suit inspired Tyvek product label. Water-resistant NASA stuff sack included. And if this will not be enough to live your dreams what’s about some Astronaut Ice Cream? Astronaut ice cream is an out of this world treat. Originally developed for space travel, this creamy-sweet freeze-dried astronaut food will give a taste of outer space right here on Earth. Ready-to-eat, yet shelf stable for up to 3 years, it’s made out of 100% real ice cream yet built to last the test of time.

NEIL ARMSTRONGS 1967 CORVETTE

america’s first astronauts all drove corvette. i did not know that but it is very interesting. on the JALOPNIK you can find more informations about this. only a handful of documented APOLLO-era-astronaut-owned “VETTES” survive. the most original is the 1967 CORVETTE once owned by NEIL ARMSTRONG. a new initiative will restore the car to the condition when ARMSTRONG drove it. check HEMMINGS DAILY for the details of this wonderful big block. pics | Roger Kallins
