About This Design

Idaho Spudnik Satellite Mission Patch Photo Sculpture Magnet

Idaho Spudnik Satellite Mission Patch Photo Sculpture Magnet

A humourous depiction of a potato as a satellite dubbed "Spudnik-1," with forks serving as antenna, in orbit around the earth. Features the Spudnik-1 mission patch. I have met people who do not believe Idaho is a real place. Others know it is somewhere in flyover territory, but can not place it any better - "Isn't that somewhere near Nebraska?" Mostly, people just think it is a backward place. Not true! Idaho has a space program and placed a satellite in orbit. The scientists and engineers at the Idaho Space Authority dubbed it the Idaho Geosynchronous Agriculture and Forest Fire Observation Tuber, or IGAFFOT for short. IGAFFOT does not exactly roll off the tongue so the governor sponsored a satellite naming contest among the state's elementary school students. There were a number of suggestion including Tater Tot, but almost 99 percent of the students suggested Spudnik; and so it was. During a television interview the director of the Idaho Space Authority explained that potatoes make wonderful observation platforms as they can be mass-produced locally and generally have several eyes. In addition, when the orbit decays the tuber is re-entry baked by friction with the atmosphere. All you need if you find one of these satellites after it comes down is butter, salt and pepper; with maybe a bit of sour cream.

I ordered the magnetic photo sculpture; however, the item received was not magnetic. Upon notifying the company, Zazzle immediately informed me that they are sending out a replacement, which I look forward to receiving. Even though I received the wrong item, the image was beautiful, making me very excited to receive the correct item. Thank you Zazzle for your commitment to customer support and to the artist for such beautiful images. The image quality was exceptional! Colors are vibrant and image is clear.
