    Description

    This is a FLOWN NASA KSC Space Shuttle Orbiter Astronaut Flight Crew Deck Hermetically Sealed Rotary Switch.
    The main Hermetically Sealed Case is made from an Electron Beam Welded Aerospace Titanium Alloy with a Stainless Steel Shaft and a Glass Sealed Multi-pin Gold Connector.
    The original acquisition cost for the sophisticated machine was many tens of thousands of dollars.

    The red paint residue is from the NASA Kennedy Space Center Space Shuttle Repair Depot and was implemented to prevent accidental reuse of removed FLOWN Orbiter Hardware.
    I purchased this artifact at a NASA Kennedy Space Center Auction in a lot of Flown Space Hardware in the 1990's.
    *The last photograph shows a Shuttle Orbiter in flight.
    The basic dimensions are:  3.75 inches main body length, 4.65 inches full length by 1.55 inches in diameter.
