EMBLEMS OF SPACE

This is an archive of emblems that I design as an ongoing personal project.

Embroidered patches for space missions have been around since the early days of human spaceflight. They serve as a symbol of human curiosity, innovation and as a way to honor these ambitious projects.

EELS or ‘Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor’ is a snake-like robot, designed to explore inaccessible terrains. It is currently in development at JPL, with extensive field testing of its capability to navigate on different surfaces, like ice, snow, sand or even underwater. The robot’s possible future destination is Saturn’s moon Enceladus to search for evidence of life in its subsurface ocean.
