SpaceX Commercial Resupply Services-6 patch

After six missions to the International Space Station, including five official resupply missions for NASA, SpaceX is preparing to launch its sixth contracted Commercial Resupply (CRS) mission to the orbiting laboratory in April 2015.

SpaceX CRS-6 is the sixth of at least 15 missions to the station that the company will fly for NASA. On CRS-6, Dragon will deliver more than 5,000 pounds of supplies, including materials to support science investigations during Expeditions 43 and 44.

A few observations:
  • Six stars for six CRS missions
  • First patch to denote a landing attempt on the autonomous spaceport drone ship (yellow dot off the course of Florida)
  • New Dragon logo (previous design)
  • ATV still docked to the space station
