The four will spend up to five days in orbit on a SpaceX Dragon, during which they will endeavour to reach the highest Earth orbit ever flown, conduct scientific research, attempt the first-ever commercial spacewalk and test Starlink laser-based communications in space.

Take a look at our first mission patch, summing up the key elements of the first mission of the Polaris Program — Polaris Dawn.

exploratio simul — "exploration together"

Thank you to Morgan Denman for your beautiful design work!

Nothing more symbolic in the USAF than a squadron patch. Morgan delivered on this one for sure. So many people working behind the scenes deserve to have their name on it. Names on a patch will soon be replaced by 100+ names on a pax manifest.

I have a BFA from The College of Saint Rose where I majored in Graphic Design. After freelancing for a year post-graduation, I was lucky enough to join the team at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex as a Graphic Designer. I worked at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex for 3 years, learning more about space and design every day.

Working at Kennedy Space Center allowed me to develop in many ways. During my time there, I developed many new skills as well as enhanced old ones. I also developed a passion for space and using my designs and illustrations to communicate, educate and inspire others. I recently began working with a contractor as a graphic designer for NASA Headquarters and I am very excited to see what projects and challenges this new opportunity might bring!
