Unused NASA stamped Envelope Post marked July 24, 1969 from the USS Hornet .

July 24, 1969, the Apollo 11 crew successfully returned to Earth following their eight-day mission to the lunar surface. Astronauts Neil Armstrong, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin and Michael Collins splashed down in the Pacific Ocean, 13 miles from the recovery ship USS Hornet. Donning biological isolation garments before leaving the spacecraft, the crew went directly into the Mobile Quarantine Facility on the aircraft carrier, their home for the following 21 days. With the success of Apollo 11, the national objective of landing men on the Moon and returning them safely to Earth was accomplished.

It came from the private collection of a gentleman who worked at NASA for 30 plus years. Please see photos for more on condition and more details. Thanks for looking and have a great day.
