Smilies Legend
The graphic symbol of the crew was developed by Alexey Tarapata from St. Petersburg and Maezawa's team. The final adjustment of the design was made by an artist from the Netherlands, Luc van den Abeelen. The composition of the Soyuz MS-20 emblem is built around a stylized image of an eagle spreading its wings and is associated with the crew's call sign - Altair. The star Altair (Alpha of the Eagle constellation) is the brightest in this constellation. The powerful bird in the drawing also reminds about the city of Orel, where the crew commander Alexander Misurkin grew up. The combination of red and white colors symbolizes the flag of Japan. The graphic symbol at the bottom of the emblem consists from the letters "M" and "Z", and is the personal logo of Yusaku Maezawa. In the upper part of the emblem, a flying Soyuz spacecraft is visible. At the top of the emblem border are the Soyuz MS-20 spacecraft name and Roscosmos logo showed, and at the bottom the crew names are presented.
