Section Two: Astronaut Artifacts
STS-60 Flown Mission Patch and U.S. Flag from Commander Charles Bolden


This United States flag and crew patch were flown aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery, STS-60, during the first joint U.S./Russian Space Shuttle flight, February 3 - 11, 1994.

Both space-flown mementos are attached to a matted and framed montage of photographs taken during the mission. At its center is a certificate of authenticity, signed by the STS-60 Commander Charles F. Bolden. This presentation is of the style NASA awards to its missions' team leaders.

From the personal collection of Charles Bolden.
