NASA Administrator Bill Nelson has been seen recently (since at least June 2022) wearing a new patch on his blue flight jacket.

The patch, which reads "Onward and Upward" depicts the moon and Mars. Along the border are icons representing the X-59 Low-Boom Flight Demonstrator, a Mars Science Laboratory-class rover, the International Space Station and the Space Launch System.

At the top of the patch are three names: Melroy (Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy), Nelson (Administrator Bill Nelson) and Cabana (Associate Administrator Bob Cabana).

I can’t help giggling. Anyway, I thought the Mars Rover was a dog off for a walk until I read your text Robert.
