Summary[edit]

Description
English: Patch for the NASA Astronaut Group 8
  • The idea for a class patch came from Guy Bluford, who asked famous space artist Robert McCall to design the patch. McCall designed the STS-1 crew patch and Bluford piggy backed on that effort to have him design the Group VIII one as well. According to Bluford, there was no special symbolism in the design. (Bert Vis in "Spaceflight", October 2000, p. 410)
