SpaceX Crew-13 Mission Insignia

jsc2026e006908 (Feb, 11, 2026) --- NASA’s SpaceX Crew-13 patch looks ardently toward the future of space exploration while honoring the legacy of those who came before. The central golden dragon harkens back to Apollo 13, embodying resilience and gazing upward to the dawn of a new era of discovery. The tail contours around Earth in an embrace, highlighting the interconnected nature of human spaceflight and celebrating the collective efforts of the teams who make it possible. The wings, outstretched to form a bridge between Earth, the International Space Station, the Moon, and Mars, reflect the continuity between low Earth orbit and destinations to come. Gold stars burn brightly, representing the crew’s families and support systems as a tribute to their immense contributions to this endeavor. All of these themes are unified within a distinctive capsule silhouette, symbolizing the limitless possibilities born out of human collaboration toward a common goal. Credit: NASA
