Smilies Legend
[i]As the mission is approaching, Cao Aodong, the designer of the mission logo, was invited to share the design concept and birth process behind the logo. In the early stage of design, I conducted in-depth research on the logos of previous manned space missions in China and related foreign space mission logos and design cases, and conducted a comprehensive understanding and sorting of the Shenzhou 18 manned flight mission, the structure of the space station, the docking sequence of various spacecraft, and the relationship with previous mission logos. I decided to explore the design from the three styles of "honor and solemnity, modern technology, and national style." When designing the Shenzhou 18 mission logo, in order to consider the systematicity and continuity with the previous mission logo, I chose the Chinese red commonly used by the Shenzhou spacecraft as the identification color. The design style is simple and modern, with a focus on technology. The overall appearance presents the appearance of the Medal of Honor. The main graphic is the main visual element of the Chinese space station logo, and the yellow line is used to emphasize the docking position and status of the current mission spacecraft and the space station. The mission number "18" is designed in a technological style, and a blue circle extends upward, representing the thriving Chinese space industry. The numbers are used as the background to emphasize the mission sequence and improve the logo recognition and memorability. The 18 shining stars on the blue background correspond to the mission number "18."[/i]
