The original patch was spotted as part of the historic Armstrong family collectible auctions in 2019. Previous Dyna Soar project patches have been produced but the auction listing for Neil Armstrongs patch revealed the detail of the patch which allowed me to create this high-fidelity replica. Limited to 50 patches.

Earlier this year the world was mesmerized by the SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch. Not only did this showcase their new Heavy Booster, it was also a marketing coup with the launch of Elon Musk's cherry red Tesla Roadster into space. The world watched for hours as the car and it's passenger the "Starman" orbited the Earth. I designed a commemorative patch for the occasion, and in my usual fashion, launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the prodution of the patch. The campaign was such a success that I decided that I should add a "stretch goal" of an additional patch to all of the backers. The second patch commemorates the first attempt to land three boosters similtanously. Even though only two landed successfully, it was an still an amazing feat.
Now that all of the Kickstarter orders are fulfilled I can open sales of the patches to the public.
