Out of this world - $1 Silver Proof 'C' Mintmark Coin

Two Australian-born US citizens, Dr. Paul Scully-Power and Dr. Andrew Thomas, have made spaceflights as NASA astronauts… but there’s yet to be an Aussie woman in space, or anyone fly under the Australian flag. Katherine Bennell- Pegg, from the Australian Space Agency, has trained at the European Astronaut Centre as an Australian. Basic astronaut training qualifies you to go to the International Space Station. Watch this space!
