This photo exemplifies why I love creating patches. The crew of Artemis II are absolutely wearing all the patches from that career that have signifcant, deep, earned meaing to them. They wear them with pride. Each design has significant meaning to both the individual, the crew and the team that got them there. Godspeed, Artemis II.
History was made again with the Starship Heavy program on October 13, 2024 when the Starship booster returned to base and was captured by the enormous "chopsticks" on its launch tower. Millions watched in awe as a 17-story object landed precisely and safely captured for reuse. This patch from Retrorocket Emblems is a bit different than previous offerings and goes with a bold Japanese style with literal chopsticks gripping Booster 12 with the text that translates to "SPACE IS DELICIOUS!". The patch is 4" wide and delivery is anticipated for mid-November.
