MICRO - 11 SPERM - 03 SpaceX CRS - 14 Resupply Homer Simpson Internal Patches NASA ISS
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:2833706 |
Original and very limited internal patch for one of the International Space Station experiments ("Micro-11") which was part of the payload of the April 2018 SpaceX Cargo Resupply Services mission - CRS-14.
This research is a collaboration between NASA's Ames Research Center, researchers from the University of Kansas Medical Center headed by Joseph Tash, and Bioserve Space Technologies. The research is a continuation of experiments performed aboard the MIR space station in ...1997. In both cases, the researchers worked with Matt Groening to design an insignia/crest which featured Homer Simpson.

Also included is an original (internal only) and very rare NASA Biological Research Project - Habitat Holding Rack embroidered patch. It features an earlier design relating to experiments that have been ongoing on the ISS involving the use of rodents for biological research in micro gravity. This experimentation was desired to have begun on the ISS while the Space Shuttle program (STS) was still active but it lacked funding/priority at that earlier time.
For those who collect the "SpaceX" rodent research patches, it may be something of interest. I earlier sold a magnet and rubber coaster with this same design not knowing whether NASA had also produced an embroidered patch as it is that rare but I learned they did when I acquired the patch recently. It's the only one I have and it dates to circa 2006.
