Symbolism explained by Blue Origin: The NS-20 mission patch features unique elements representing each of our astronauts. Check out some of the designs in this patch: - The star is placed over Kent, Washington, Blue Origin's headquarters where Gary Lai has spent 18 years advancing space technology.
- Female astronaut symbolizes Sharon Hagle's Space Kids Global Foundation, working to inspire young girls in STEM.
- The world outside our windows, a nod to Jim Kitchen visiting all 193 U.N.-recognized countries.
- The orbital ring on the patch represents George Nield's work at the Orbital Sciences Corporation and Jim Kitchen's work to promote Low Earth Orbit space trips.
- The sailboat represents Marty Allen's passion for sailing.
- The dots under the Hagles' names represent their 26th wedding anniversary.
- Paw prints are a nod to all the dogs of Blue and Saba, the beloved dog of the Hagles.
