[b]Soyuz TMA-09M mission patch[/b] Soyuz TMA-09M, currently scheduled to launch on May 28, 2013, will deliver Roscosmos cosmonaut Fyodor Yurchikhin, NASA astronaut Karen Nyberg and ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano to the International Space Station to join the Expedition 36 and Expedition 37 crews. Credit: Roscosmos/SpacePatches.nl The Soyuz TMA-09M patch designs shares elements of the two earlier Soyuz mission patches that Fyodor Yurchikhin participated in (TMA-10 and TMA-19): a bright blue rim featuring the crew names with a dark blue border and a central field featuring the Earth and the spacecraft in yellow and orange. The white and light blue streaks underneath the Soyuz symbolize that this is the fourth mission to the ISS for Soyuz commander Yurchikhin; the first being on an American spacecraft during STS-112. This design shares one element with another patch: the ISS is taken from the patch of Expedition 37, which Yurchikhin commands.

Clever.hoorenzIt is not a cog - it is representing the outer rim of the VSK-4 (Vizir Spetsialniy Kosmicheskiy-4) periscope view aboard the Soyuz. johntosullivanI stand corrected. Good point.RussianHere is a picture to explain what is the VSK is in the Soyuz capsule:KAPTECI like the remembering of the TMA-10... A very "Russian" concept for honouring past flights. If only we could see some of the rejected projects! Anyway, nice patch! I love the patches with blue colors...hoorenz quote:Originally posted by KAPTEC:A very "Russian" concept for honouring past flights. You must be refering to Pavel Vinogradov's Soyuz TMA-08M patch, right? (It also has the same shape as his earlier TMA-8 flight, rotated 180 degrees.) KAPTECSure Erik... This is what I meant Oh!... and thank you so much: it's nice to see so clearly my lovely country in a space patch.hoorenz quote:Originally posted by KAPTEC:Oh!... and thank you so much: it's nice to see so clearly my lovely country in a space patch. It is funny. It is exactly what I was thinking when I prepared the high resolution version from Luc's and Dima's design. "Jorge will be happy!" Of course I also realized that the Netherlands disappeared behind a solar panel.KAPTEC hoorenzFrom kitchen table, to Baikonur.KAPTECIt is a special experience when you can do this, aren't you agree with me?
