2006 Canadian $30 Achievements: Canadarm/Colonel Hadfield 5th Anniv Proof Sterling Silver Hologram Coin

 

On April 22, 2001, Colonel Chris Hadfield made history as the first Canadian to perform a spacewalk when he installed Canadarm2 on the International Space Station 400 km (249 mi) above the earth. This next-generation robotic arm was born on the success of the Canadarm, the first robotic arm ever built for space. Canadarm proved so effective for the shuttle's astronauts that scientists wanted one for the Station - in fact, Col. Hadfield used Canadarm when he installed Canadarm2!

From the moment it became operational, Canadarm2 has been a critical component in the construction of the Station - and it will be equally important in its maintenance for years to come. Virtually every mission will rely on it - an amazing technological achievement that you can celebrate with pride as Canada marks the 5th anniversary of this nation's first-ever spacewalk.

 

Design

This exquisite $30 Proof Sterling Silver coin features Colonel Hadfield on his historic spacewalk with a selective hologram representing space and containing the Canadarm at the ready to give a helping hand. Only 20,000 coins have been minted to capture these exceptional, all-Canadian milestones in space.
