Skylab II/3 Spirit

The second Crew earned the nickname “Supercrew” for accomplishing 150% of mission objectives. They carried spiders as part of a student experiment and the Vitruvian Man is depicted in the Skylab EVA suit. I was able to send two draft designs to Al Bean for his feedback last March. The first focused on the spiders and I was going to use the tag line, “Spidermen.” Bean said their most significant accomplishment was to erect the second Sun shield. So I went with the Supercrew motif and depicted the Sun shield over the lab in this 5" fully embroidered emblem.
