New collectible pins celebrate humanity's robotic space explorers

A design studio's proposal for a new collectible set seeks to "pin" down the pivotal probes from space exploration history.

Chop Shop on Tuesday (April 8) began seeking fans of robotic satellites and interplanetary spacecraft to help them create a series of hard enamel lapel pins. In addition to seeking pledges through a crowdfunding campaign, the Philadelphia-based store is turning to the public to pick out the probe for the fifth pin the line.
