MSS | Here is the first look at the Soyuz MS-21 crew (Oleg Artemyev, Denis Matveyev and Sergei Korsakov) patch (via Twitter) and Sergei Korsakov on Instagram: Spacecraft will be called "Korolyov" and mission will be called "Launch by Baumansky Start." All crew members are graduates of Bauman Moscow State Technical University. |

MSS | It's the second look at this patch: |
Russian | Very hard to embroider! |
Russian | My friends from Glavkosmos sent me this photo of the MS-21 main crew and backups to share with collectors. They managed to have a very high quality of embroidery! |
MSS | Here is the prime crew patch from today's exams at the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center:

waa49 | Is there a more detailed explanation regarding the patch; e.g. who should represent the head and what meaning does it have? |
lucspace | The general design is based on the logo of the Bauman University where all crew members studied. The portrait represents Sergei Korolev, after whom the spacecraft is named. |
MSS | The March 18, 2022 launch date will also mark the 57th anniversary of Alexei Leonov's first spacewalk. |
