Soyuz TMA-17 commander Oleg Kotov was specific in his comments during our interview together that while including the children's artwork, his own ideas went into the creation of this patch. |

It's a cute design. The first in recent memory that doesn't place surnames in the order in which they will sit in the spacecraft. |

Some simple yet beautiful designs being produced here. Getting the children involved has so many benefits... probably least of all some great additions to our collections. |

Many thanks for this posting. Its always tempting to rush off and buy a replica, but your well timed posting has prevented a moment of rashness in favour of waiting for the real deal. Please continue to keep us posted. |
