The Soyuz MS-16 crew patch depicts two of the most challenging elements of the spaceship's mission. The craft is shown just after orbital insertion, preparing to navigate towards its destination; the International Space Station, indicated by a white silhouette. In the background a multi-coloured streak depicts the re-entry of the ship's descent module during its fiery return into Earth's atmosphere. Three stars against the black background of deep space represent the three crew members' journey while the two-toned blue hues in the bottom of the design represent our home planet and all the Earth-based support professionals enabling this mission. They are acknowledged by the position of the crewmembers' names in this part of the design. The spaceship's designation is written across the top of the patch, crowned by the Roscosmos logo. Designed by Luc van den Abeelen.
