Flown heat shield plug carried on the Soyuz TM-30 capsule, the final flight to the Mir space station. The capsule remained in orbit from April 4–June 16, 2000. Plug measures approximately 2? in diameter with expected charring to the surface, and is affixed to a 9.25? vertical mount with an informational plaque affixed to the base. The purpose of the TM-30 mission was to reactivate and repair Mir, as well as to boost its orbit. This mission was also the first privately funded mission to a space station.
