Author	Topic: Die Astronautin (The Female Astronaut) patch
Robert Pearlman Editor Posts: 42984 From: Houston, TX Registered: Nov 1999	posted 03-26-2017 11:15 PM Die Astronautin ("The Female Astronaut"), a privately-organized search for Germany's first woman to fly in space (discussed here) has its own mission patch, designed by Luc van den Abeelen. The patch, in decal and embroidered form, is available through a crowdfunding campaign supporting Die Astronautin's training program.
