I believe the decal with the burnt orange external tank may possibly be Lockheed Martin's version of the logo patch to signify their Michoud operations. but the external tank is the burnt orange

There was also a version kicking around on eBay in the past 6 months that I believe said "Space Shuttle Discovery" but otherwise looked like the regular, 3" version. That too, is not official (but could be spotted around the ET office at Marshall Space Flight Center). There is also a version (at least in decal form) that has the gold border but the external tank is the burnt orange of the post-STS-2 missions). To the best of my knowledge, other than the official gold border version, all the others were fantasy/souvenir patches produced without NASA's or its contractors' knowledge. Standard triangular shape with a really washed out pink as the main color and instead of "Space Shuttle" it has "Endeavour '92". There's another one I came across a few months back.

pink/white border with pink variation and white shuttle.

Is the triangular patch the official insignia of the shuttle program or is the round Space Shuttle Program insignia the "new official" design? If so when did it change to the round design? How many have you seen? What is the status of the patches: are they commemorative, commemorating a specific cause like breast cancer personal, etc.? I've been noticing several variations to the triangular shuttle program patch. I will never part with it as it's my most sentimental patch although it is a little worn and slightly tattered looking. I'm sure my parents paid for it considering my age. Thanks, I thought it might be AB Emblem, but I had to pass it along to more studious people to consider.

I was going to ask next if anyone knew how to contact Schulman, but a quick search resulted in the NASA release noting his death in 2004. The design was first released in December 1976. It was designed by artist Robert Schulman, who was head of the Special Services Branch at NASA Headquarters. When was the program insignia first introduced and do we know who designed it? I am wondering, since I don't remember, if anyone can say who is the manufacturer of this patch pictured below. This is my first patch ever and I still have it! I have a 3" shuttle program patch that I bought at the now defunct Florence, South Carolina air and space museum way back in 1979 at the young age of 8. Is the patch that is out now pretty much the same one that was worn by astronauts in the 1980's? Topic: NASA's Space Shuttle Program logo patchĭoes anyone out there know if there is a real difference in the Space Shuttle Program patch that NASA astronauts wore on their light blue flight jackets in the early to mid 1980's and the current AB Emblem Space Shuttle program patch?
