I am looking for info on the patches for the flight of Soyuz TM-31. This was the flight of the first crew to the ISS.I can find very little info on the patch for the Soyuz spacecraft and its this patch that I hope you can help me out on. I have the info and an ISS Expedition 1 crew patch, but I am looking for info on the patch that was for the Soyuz spacecraft and not the expedition patch. I have only seen a photo on Wikipedia of this patch and I hope you on here can help me out. Thanks. |

That patch on wiki is not the TM-31 patch... to the best of what I know there is no TM-31 crew patch, only the ISS Exp-1 patch...

Butch forget that Expedition patch: it never was a mission patch.As far as I know, and like Jacques told us, the astronaut/cosmonauts of the Soyuz TM-31 and the Expedition 1 were the only crew that joined their patches in one. |

At the time of the flight, Countdown Creations was selling shirts with the logo. Also, the plaque is hanging in mission control Houston. I doubt it was ever approved by the Soyuz commander though. Probably drawn up by someone at NASA JSC. | |
