Patches? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Patches… Wait, Yes We Do : Guest : Tim Gagnon

There are few things as iconic on an astronaut's flight suit as their mission patch—a singular piece of art that encapsulates everything about the mission: who’s going, what country they’re from, what vehicle they’re riding, where they’re headed, and what they plan to do when they get there.From space shuttles to space stations, from space telescopes to asteroids, this week’s guest is the man who designed hundreds of them—Tim Gagnon.From the very first sketch he submitted as a kid, to the dozens that actually flew to space, to the one he finally made with his own name on it for his analog astronaut mission in Utah, Kovi and Benjamin close out Season 6 of their show by asking the most important question of all:What would a mission patch look like for their show, where the mascot is a rubber duck?Follow us everywhere!Find Benjamin at Science, Actually : https://www.scienceactually.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/actuallyscienceFind Kovi at Fun Fact Science : https://www.funfactscience.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/funfactscienceFind Tim and his beautiful work here https://www.kscartist.com/
