This is the Signed unique original Watercolour painting by Wilf Hardy.

In 1961 Americans Commander D. Ross and Lieutenant Commander Victor A. Prather were lifted up to 21.5 miles above the Earth's surface in order to test their life-support suits. They were tethered to the aircraft carrier USS Antietam, staying at that height for two hours. A crucial step in the 1960's Space Race.

Original artwork from Look and Learn no. 465 (12 December 1970) for the feature Men and Machines: Flight to the Edge of Space.
