Current Era Mission Patches
Patches issued for current missions launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS)
Project Gemini
These patches represent the ten manned flights of Project Gemini, which flew in 1965 and 1966, and paved the way for Apollo. Historians take note: Gemini 5 was the first flight to have official crew patches. Gemini 3 had an unofficial patch designed by Gus Grissom, and Gemini 4's crew used the American flag for its official patch.
Project Mercury
These patches represent the six manned flights of Project Mercury that took America's first steps into space during 1961 to 1963. Historians take note: These patches were designed many years after Project Mercury concluded and never were considered official. However, they are widely accepted today as symbols of the original missions.
Project Apollo
These patches represent each of the manned missions of Project Apollo, from the tragedy of Apollo 1 to the triumph of Apollo 11 and the bittersweet concluding flight of Apollo 17.
