I am curious as to who produced the T-Rex OSIRIS-REx mission patch? It is beautifully done. |

There is another OSIRIS-REx patch:And yet another one which I would call the "Egyptian patch," it is for the Atlas V AV-067 rocket patch that launched the OSIRIS-REx payload. |

I am always on the lookout for new and interesting emblems! I am curious to know who manufactured that one as well. |

The T-Rex design was created by a family member of an OSIRIS-REx team member. According to principal investigator Dante Lauretta, they refer to it as the "fan art" emblem. |

There is also a slightly smaller (3.5-inch diameter), less detailed, lighter blue version of the "fan art" patch. I believe this was a first generation to the 4-inch version being sold now. |

The Egyptian patch to me looks like a play on the Jurassic Park emblem. |

I am not familiar with the one above, but three more related patches that were produced for team members. To start, a woven version of a design shown earlier:A patch produced for the spacecraft's departure from Bennu on May 10, 2021: And a patch for the camera suite on the spacecraft: |

Looks like there is another one with a black border as well.Logos were also made for OVIRS and REXIS that were on the shipping containers, etc. but I'm not sure if they had a patch made like OCAMS. My guess if the Utah patch is authentic perhaps it was for a team at the test range. |

I don't know if there were other patches, but this photo (Credit: NASA/Keegan Barber) of members of the Kennedy Space Center Flight Operations team shows a pilot wearing the "fan art" emblem while accompanying the sample return capsule back to the clean room. |

Today I had a chance to catch up with a colleague who covered the landing from Utah. This patch and a decal with the same design were given out at the press site.The decal has a description of the mission on its back and points to both the NASA and University of Arizona websites for more information about the mission. |

Another patch for SCIFLI: The Scientifically Calibrated In-Flight Imagery (SCIFLI) team at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, collects real-time visual, infrared, and spectral data on vehicles while they are in flight. |

Wow, love all the obscure patches (I'd happily trade one of the new sample return patches for the 'Egyptian' patch, or number 7, 14, 15, 16 or 17...) Any takers? |
