"SHUTTLE PROGRAMME" 80s Inspired Disk Cover Design

The Space Shuttle program, initiated by NASA in the early 1980s, was a groundbreaking effort to create a reusable spacecraft capable of carrying astronauts and cargo to and from low Earth orbit. The program's first mission launched on April 12, 1981, with the shuttle Columbia. Unlike previous spacecraft that could only be used once, the Space Shuttle was designed to be launched, landed like a glider, and then prepared for future missions, significantly reducing the cost of access to space.
