The Canadian Space Agency has flown astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle. On March 15, 1985 Canada issued a commemorative stamp that honored Canadian Achievements in space particularly Marc Garneau, first Canadian astronaut. The Canadian first day cover illustrated was autographed by Canadian astronauts Ken Money, Bjarni Tryggvason, Bob Thirsk, Steve McLean, Roberta Bondar and Marc Garneau.
