NS-30 mission patch

Blue Origin has released the NS-30 mission patch. A few of the symbols embedded include:

• The mountain represents Spanish mountaineer and adventurer Jesús Calleja, who has climbed the world's Seven Summits.

• The airplane and clouds represent Jesús Calleja, Elaine Hyde, Dr. Richard Scott, and Tushar Shah, all of whom are pilots.

• The dove with the olive branch represents Jesús Calleja and Lane Bess’ hope for peace for all.

• The Southern Cross represents Elaine Hyde’s Australian and Singaporean heritage.

• The Roman numeral II along the bottom edge represents Lane’s second flight.

• The winding road on the mountain leading to the crew capsule represents the road to space each of the crew’s astronauts have taken.

Jesús Calleja will become the third Spaniard to fly into space. This is the personal patch for his Blue Origin's NS-30 mission. The patch was designed by artist Jorge Cartes.
