Description: At the desolate Outpost 31, we find ourselves heeding MacReady's sage advice: 'Why don't we just... wait here for a little while. See what happens.'

It's a fictional badge paying homage to the brave Americans stationed at Outpost 31, who encountered the unknown terror. For fans of horror movies and admirers of John Carpenter's timeless classic 'The Thing,' this piece captures the chilling essence of the film, making it a must-have addition to your collection."
Description: Laika (Russian: Лайка; c. 1954 – 3 November 1957) was a Soviet space dog who became one of the first animals in space, and the first animal to orbit the Earth. Laika, a stray mongrel from the streets of Moscow, was selected to be the occupant of the Soviet spacecraft Sputnik 2 that was launched into outer space on 3 November 1957. Little was known about the impact of spaceflight on living creatures at the time of Laika's mission, and the technology to de-orbit had not yet been developed, so Laika's survival was never expected. Some scientists believed humans would be unable to survive the launch or the conditions of outer space, so engineers viewed flights by animals as a necessary precursor to human missions.
Description: Billions for rockets. Pennies for the rent. The math never added up, and fifty years later, it still doesn't. When they announce the next launch while the bills pile up. When the news celebrates milestones in space while ignoring milestones in struggle. When priorities reveal themselves in budget line items. The question still stands.
