collectSPACE First look: Boeing CST-100 Starliner crew spacecraft program patch First it was given an acronym, then it was assigned a name. Now Boeing's CST-100 Starliner crewed spacecraft has its own program patch. The commercial space capsule, which Boeing is producing to transport NASA astronauts to and from the International Space Station, features prominently on the new logo. The rectangular insignia, which replaces a circular emblem that was used before the Boeing crew space transportation (CST) system was formally christened in September 2015, now includes the Starliner moniker.  |

To answer an anticipated question, embroidered patches are planned but have not been produced yet. Boeing is working to make this emblem available to the public; details to follow. |

I love this patch design and hope to get one for myself as I have been inside two of the Boeing facilities for it... |

A friend of mine at Boeing got me some of the stickers for this design, and one of the lapel pins. The stickers look great, but they are about three-quarters of the size of a normal NASA mission patch sticker. |

Great looking patch! Hopefully there are plans to sell patches. I've already looked at both ULA and Boeing online stores and nothing yet. |

Per a contact at Boeing, the Atlas V Starliner patch was jointly developed by United Launch Alliance (ULA) and Boeing and only recently approved by both companies. The patches made their debut as swag for attendees at the 33rd Space Symposium in Colorado Springs last week.No word yet if the patch will be made wider available to the public. |

Courtesy Boeing, here is the official description of the Atlas V Starliner patch: In this patch, the dawn of a new era in commercial human spaceflight is shown as the sun breaks through the horizon of the Earth from the hallowed grounds of Florida's Space Coast. Prominently displayed, the United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket carrying Boeing's CST-100 Starliner spacecraft launches forward as if to announce its arrival as humanity’s new commercial space transportation system, driving us toward the International Space Station now and other low-Earth orbit destinations in the future.
The five stars represent our commitment to safety and mission success, acknowledging the four NASA Commercial Crew Program astronauts and one Boeing test pilot who are helping us develop this new crew launch capability for the U.S. The five stars also embody the future of commercial space travel, with four Starliner seats designated for NASA or NASA-sponsored astronauts as they embark on long-duration missions aboard the space station and a fifth seat that perhaps beckons a tourist, scientist or international passenger to come fly with us. These stars send a message that ULA and Boeing understand the magnitude of trust that our customers place in us as we return humans to space from U.S. soil.  |

From the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex via Twitter: Have you seen the new @BoeingSpace CST-100 Starliner patches yet? You can find them in our recently renovated Space Shop!  The patch is not (yet) available via the Visitor Complex Space Shop's online store. |

I ordered the patch "Go For Launch" through the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex gift shop. The patch (item number is: 651833) is $6.99. I had to use the Special Order Item SKU through the store's online shop. I highly recommend calling them prior to ordering to verify if it's still in stock as well as if any other ordering specifics changed. |

Has anyone got a source for the 'Go For Launch' luggage tag patch? I've seen them on eBay for a rather steep $25 and they won't ship to the UK. If anyone is looking to order one, and could order an extra one to be posted to the UK, I'd appreciate it. |

The Boeing Store has a new CST-100 Starliner patch available, part of a "Path to Mars" series that also includes patches and apparel for the International Space Station and Space Launch System. |

The Boeing Store is now stocking the "Go For Launch" patch previously only available at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, but with some differences. Most noticeably, the details on the Starliner are now outlined in black and the blue accents on the border are thicker.(Boeing also has similar patches for the Space Launch System and Space Station.)  |

Received my CST-100 Go For Launch patch today. I'm glad to see Boeing producing patches but disappointed they are so small. I wish it had been a 4-inch version but at least they are offering patches. |

The Boeing Store has introduced a new program collection, which includes a new Starliner patch. Inspired by the precision of aerospace design, the Boeing Aero Graphic Patch is a great addition to your patch collection! The patch features an overhead view of a gridded rendering of the Boeing CST-100 Starliner and Boeing logo stitched with the finest detail. The collection also includes 3 by 5-inch patches in the same style for the Space Launch System and International Space Station. |

Going for the “most vehicle patches ever designed before a crew was flown to space” record?  |

I think it might beat the STS 41-F Bobko flight crew for number of patches. |

That capsule is venting something and it doesn't look like a thruster firing. Maybe a leaky valve? Asking for a friend. |

Does not look embroidered to me, it is woven. |
