A recent photograph taken of Expedition 26 flight engineer Paolo Nespoli on the International Space Station includes an interesting bit of wall art.

Is that Tom Petty's autograph or is the sign just a joke for/among the station crew?

I searched online and found many examples of Petty's autograph. Unless Petty reeaally took his time to write the actual letters in his name I'd say this is just a bit of orbital humor.
