Margaritaville on a mission: Jimmy Buffett patch to fund ISS scienceThe first mission patch to directly fund research on board the International Space Station went on sale Wednesday (Nov. 5). The emblem is the first product of a long-standing but little known collaboration between the ISS National Laboratory and Margaritaville.
Yes, that Margaritaville — the lifestyle and hospitality brand inspired by the late Jimmy Buffett, whose tropical-rock style songs celebrate the themes of escape and relaxation. Buffett also championed environmental causes and had a lifelong interest in space exploration.
