In cooperation with Blackwing Space, the Endeavor Flight represents Celestis' 32nd flight mission and 14th launch into Low Earth Orbit. The spacecraft will circle the Earth multiple times before beginning atmospheric reentry and planned recovery operations, transforming a journey through space into a lasting personal legacy.
The Endeavor Flight patch centers on the astronaut symbol of a star breaking the barrier of space. The symbol ascends from a bright flash of sunset-colored angel wings, reminding us that the souls on this voyage are already beyond the stars, thriving in our hearts and stirring our imagination.
"The soul takes flight to the world that is invisible but there, and there we shall see angels."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
The Endeavor Flight logo is from well-known designer and illustrator Eric Gignac. Eric’s portfolio also includes co-design of NASA Space Shuttle mission patches for the STS 128 and 133 missions. Every Celestis mission has its own logo and mission patch, following the tradition of creating a unique identity for each launch dating to the earliest days of the American space program.
