Author	Topic: Value of Hubble Telescope solar cell lucite
Ianhetho Member Posts: 336 From: Bogangar NSW Australia Registered: May 2018	posted 11-02-2024 03:09 AM I am considering selling my Hubble Space Telescope solar cell lucite. What would this be worth?

I'd say that $2000 USD is a good estimate - although they have sold for less than $1000 and up to $4000 in the past. This is one of those items where prices have been all over the place. But in 2016, Robert Pearlman sold his here for $2100. That same year, the American Space Museum auctioned one signed by Story Musgrave for $1800. And then more recently, they auctioned another one (with three panels instead of two) for $2100. So I think that the $2000 range would get you a quick sale. Although these come up for sale so rarely that you might get lucky with a higher price. If you put this on eBay for $4000 and have some patience, I wouldn't be surprised to see it sell for that.
