ISS Expedition 54 Patch.svg
The Expedition 54 crew insignia
  • Orbiting Earth continuously since 1998, the International Space Station (ISS) is one of our greatest engineering achievements. It is depicted in gold, symbolic of constancy and excellence. Flying toward a sunrise represents the station’s contributions to a bright future. That sunrise uses blue, white, and red, the combined national colors of Japan, Russia, and the United States, symbolizing the crew’s cohesiveness. Crewmember names are in blue, symbolizing devotion and loyalty.
  • The gold border represents the constant human presence in space onboard the orbiting laboratory. Symbolic of new Russian and U.S. spacecraft that will advance human exploration, the patch is shaped as a capsule. The number 54 is drawn as a path eventually leading to Mars.
  • Finally, the stars symbolize the values of leadership, trust, teamwork, and excellence lived by mission control teams throughout the history of human space programs, as well as the global vigilance of those teams while operating the station.

Soyuz MS-07 mission patch
  • The crew patch is depicted in the shape of an armillary sphere: a centuries-old tool that is supposed to represent the heavens.
  • The Soyuz MS-07 spacecraft is shown flying high over the Earth in the center of the instrument, symbolizing man's continued presence in orbit. In the background, the Moon is shown, representing future aspiration for human activities in space.
  • The constellation of Capricorn is represented in the top of the design, with the three larger stars representing the crew members. The groups of two and three smaller stars symbolize the children fathered by spacecraft commander Shkaplerov and American astronaut Tingle.
  • The crew's names are positioned along the border of the patch together with their national flags. On the design's horizontal ring, the name of the spacecraft and the Roscosmos logo are shown.
ISS Expedition 55 Patch.svg
The official mission insignia of the Expedition 55 crew.
  • The six crew members of Expedition 55 are patriots from three different countries – Japan, Russia, and the United States. The crew from these three countries will work together to ensure the success of Expedition 55.
  • The three rings symbolize the three countries of the six crew members. The rings join in a common intersection, symbolizing collaboration and a common focus for the crew aboard the space station. The colors of the rings represent the energy and power required to carry humans and equipment into space and to operate the ISS. The colors blue and green represent the magnificent beauty of Earth. The color black represents the darkness of space, and the immense challenge of exploring space. The six stars represent the crew, Norishige Kanai, Scott Tingle, Anton Shkaplerov, A.J. (Drew) Feustel, Oleg Artemyev, and Ricky Arnold. The three flags are the flags representing each crew member’s country. The swoosh extending upward towards space represents the dedication of cosmonauts, astronauts and a multinational support team working together to explore space and discover new science that will benefit all humans.
