Mission and program patches are common in the space industry, and they typically incorporate areas of symbolism.
Symbols in the Dream Chaser CRS-2 program patch include:
- Six large stars represent the six minimum missions to the Space Station which will be completed for NASA under the CRS-2 program by 2024.
- A star over Colorado signifies where Dream Chaser is designed, built and operated.
- The International Space Station is our destination for each mission under CRS-2. Dream Chaser will stay mated to the space station for up to 75 days during each mission.
Six additional mission patches will also be created for each Dream Chaser CRS-2 NASA missions as launch dates approach.
