STS-57 (NASA) STICKER - Design Description

This vinyl kiss-cut decal captures the essence of the STS-57 mission in a dynamic and visually compelling design. The artwork prominently features the Space Shuttle Endeavour, rendered in a crisp, detailed illustration, poised in a classic launch or orbital configuration. The shuttle is set against a backdrop representing the vast expanse of space, likely using deep blues and blacks to evoke the cosmic environment.

The central imagery emphasizes the mission's primary objective: the retrieval of the European Retrievable Carrier (EURECA) satellite. The EURECA is likely depicted near the shuttle, perhaps being embraced by the shuttle's robotic arm, symbolizing the critical moment of capture and retrieval. This element represents the mission's success in advanced satellite servicing.

The design incorporates elements relating to the Spacehab module, which allowed for significant scientific exploration. The design might include smaller graphical representations of scientific equipment or the Spacehab module itself, underscoring the mission's contributions to microgravity research.

The inclusion of subtle visual cues would be used to highlight the spacewalk (EVA) conducted by astronauts Janice Voss and Jerry Ross, the design might include elements representing astronaut activities, or a spacewalk, that showcase the important aspect of the mission.

Overall, the design serves as a visual tribute to STS-57, commemorating the mission's pioneering spirit through satellite retrieval, in-orbit science, and advancements in spacewalk capabilities. The artwork embodies the mission's goals in a concise, easily understood, and visually appealing way, making it a fitting memento of this historical spaceflight.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
