1959 NASA Mercury Space Capsule Blueprint

This detailed 1959 blueprint of the NASA Mercury Space Capsule showcases the intricate interior arrangement of the first American manned spacecraft. Part of Project Mercury, this diagram provides an engineering-level view of the spacecraft’s components, including life support systems, instrument panels, communication devices, and pilot seating arrangements. The layout reflects the pioneering technology of the late 1950s, aimed at placing astronauts into orbit and safely returning them to Earth. Ideal for space enthusiasts, engineering students, and historians, this diagram captures the early days of NASA’s human space exploration efforts.

The original poster was digitally cleaned up, adjusted and prepared for printing by me.

WHAT MAKES MY PRINTS DIFFERENT

Sure, you might find similar pictures elsewhere but not all prints are equal. I don’t use regular printers and paper to print this art. Instead, I use a high end lab and the prints are made on professional photo printers using high quality a archival inks and acid-free archival Lustre paper. Lustre is a premium finish on a heavier paper and offers the vibrant colors of glossy with the fingerprint-resistant finish of matte. This type of finish avoids glare on the print.

Prints are available in all popular sizes. You can select your size while you order.

My listing photos are low resolution. Original high resolution files are used for printing. My pictures are not framed and do not include a frame. Some of the pictures with frames are just for illustration purposes only.

SHIPPING:

Prints are packaged to avoid any damage in transit. Usually prints will be flat-packed and shipped in a rigid box with material to protect the finished print. Some prints might be shipped in a rigid mailing tube with material to protect the finished print. Please see the shop’s policies page for additional information on shipping.
