Sell Space memorabilia, NASA collectibles with RR

Why should you sell Space memorabilia, NASA collectibles and space exploration artifacts with RR Auction? Because we’re the trusted auction house sought out by the people at the center of the US space race, and the passionate collectors of those space artifacts who want to curate them for future generations.

RR Auction is honored that the top names in space exploration come to us to consign their incredible collections. From the scientists, engineers and insiders of the space race, to the very men and women who have traveled beyond Earth’s atmosphere, our consignors offer firsthand and incredibly rare collectibles gathered from one of the most exciting periods of modern history.

RR Auction consistently achieves the highest prices for autographs, training-used materials, flown artifacts, and space hardware. We were privileged to curate moonwalker Dave Scott’s watch, which sold at auction for $1.625 million. RR Auction attained the highest price ever paid for a signed Neil Armstrong photo, and a letter by Alan Shepard writing about the Mercury program also garnered record-shattering results.

In October 2017, we featured the collection of Dan Schaiewitz. As an engineer in the late 1960s, Schaiewitz worked at Cape Kennedy on the life support and oxygen systems astronauts would use during the Apollo 11 mission. His personal collection offered a rare insider’s glimpse into the United States’ space program, as well as intimate off-hours personal memories made with the astronauts and technicians.

In addition to people and things that have left and returned to Earth, our Space auctions have also included items originating from beyond Earth. Meteorite hunter and expert Geoff Notkin shares his collection of beautifully diverse meteorites with RR Auction, with exciting results.
