STS-95 Mission Patch of NASA |
 The
STS-95 patch, designed by the crew members, is intended to reflect the scientific,
engineering, and historic elements of the mission. The Space Shuttle Discovery
is shown rising over the sunlit Earth limb, representing the global benefits
of the mission science and the solar science objectives of the Spartan Satellite.
The bold number "7" signifies the seven members of Discovery's
crew and also represents a historical link to the original seven Mercury
astronauts. The STS-95 crew member John Glenn's first orbital flight is
represented by the Friendship 7 capsule.
