Product Details
Pioneer Plaque Enhanced
In the 1970s, NASA sent several probes to the outer planets; after exploring them, the probes headed out of our solar system and into interstellar space. On board are metal plaques featuring schematic images engraved on their surfaces as a message for extraterrestrials.
What would a bicycle enthusiast have included as part of the message?
A drawing of a bicycle—a symbol of one of the greatest inventions humanity has ever created!
The jersey for your next Critical Mass!
Fun Fact: Historically speaking, a simple cotton shirt deserves the name "jersey" just as much as brightly colored plastic gear with a zipper. The word originates from the French "tricoter" (= to knit), and garments referred to as jerseys existed as early as 1800—initially as fine-knit underwear. Modern t-shirts and sports jerseys both evolved from that very underwear. From around 1900 until the 1960s/70s, they were made of finely knit wool or cotton—the so-called jersey fabric, which is still used to make t-shirts today. It wasn't until around 1940 that petroleum products like polyester or polyamide were processed into clothing, increasingly being used for sports jerseys. The zipper was first patented in 1851—but it wasn't practical or truly usable until around 1900.

By incorporating ecological processes like crop rotation and promoting biodiversity, organic farming not only benefits the soil, ecosystems, and the environment, but also fosters a good quality of life for farmers and their local communities. Furthermore, organic cotton utilizes 88% less water. (Source: Textile Exchange LCA)
