Expedition 60 besättning.

Expedition 60 var den 60:e expeditionen till Internationella rymdstationen (ISS). Expeditionen började den 24 juni 2019 då delar av Expedition 59s besättning återvände till jorden med Sojuz MS-11.

Aleksandr Skvortsov, Luca Parmitano och Andrew R. Morgan anlände till stationen med Sojuz MS-13 den 20 juli.

Under de sista veckorna av expeditionen var man nio personer ombord, då Oleg Skripotjka, Jessica Meir och Hazza Al Mansouri anlände till rymdstationen den 25 september 2019.

Expeditionen avslutades den 3 oktober 2019Sojuz MS-12 lämnade rymdstationen.

ISS Expedition 59 Patch.svg
The Expedition 59 crew insignia
  • The Expedition 59 patch celebrates the International Space Station’s role as a microgravity science laboratory. The crew, made up of scientists, doctors, engineers and pilots, will conduct hundreds of experiments for the benefit of mankind and our fragile environment on planet Earth.
  • The patch shape depicts the cupola windows. Through these windows, astronauts have made many significant observations of Earth’s ecosystems and they have discovered and documented real-time events like volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.
  • The position of the Earth at the top of the patch depicts where the Earth would be seen by an astronaut from the cupola. It represents the explorers’ unique perspective on his or her home. The image at the center of the patch is the station itself, the largest single structure humans have ever put into space, an engineering marvel.
  • The station is overlaid on an atom, the basic building block of all matter. The atom has three electron orbits with the flags of Russia, the United States of America and Canada, representing the home countries of the Expedition 59 crew. Like electrons in an atom, international cooperation is the basic stabilizing force that enables large scale space exploration.
  • To achieve great deeds, humans from all across the globe must work together in peace with a shared vision. The Expedition 59 patch celebrates the massive scientific accomplishments of the space station while highlighting the importance of global teamwork in understanding our planet and continuing with bold exploration in the future.

The Expedition 60 crew insignia
  • The Moon landing is one of the most extraordinary feats of humankind, an embodiment of ingenuity and desire for exploration. The patch of Expedition 60 commemorates the 50th anniversary of that landing: a constellation of three stars with the Moon superimposed forms the letter “L,” the Latin symbol for 50. The Moon is depicted as a waxing crescent, as it was on July 20, 1969.
  • The familiar silhouette of the International Space Station is visible, flying across the night sky. Stars, numerous and bright as seen from the space station, form the shape of an eagle in the same pose as on the iconic patch of the Apollo 11 mission. The sunrise represents the fact that we are still in the early stages of humanity’s exploration of space.
  • The hexagonal shape of the patch represents the space station's cupola, with the six points of the hexagon symbolizing the six crewmembers of Expedition 60. The names and nationalities are not present, as on the original Apollo 11 mission patch, to highlight that space missions – then, now, and in the future – are for Earth and all humankind.

  • The Expedition 61 patch represents an exciting and dynamic time aboard the International Space Station as it constantly advances towards a limitless future in space. The overall patch view is from an approaching vehicle in pursuit of the space station. The sun is the most prominent, central element in the patch as the source of energy and life for the Earth, the station and our entire solar system. As the present focus of human spaceflight, the space station is centered in the emblem while barely eclipsing the sun with its tiny shadow, reminding of us that human exploration is a small part of our quest to understand the universe.
  • Fifteen of the sun’s rays represent the 15 original partner members of the space station program, while the 16th ray represents an open invitation for continued collaboration with new partners. The four yellow rays form the cardinal directions of a compass, symbolizing the innate human drive to explore. The advancing terminator represents the dawn of a new day on Earth. The name ring appears to float through space and has no single orientation, emphasizing the variety of viewpoints assembled in an international crew unified under one mission. Nine rays extend beyond the name ring to represent the nine human missions that have braved exploration beyond low-Earth orbit, thus encouraging us to drive boundlessly out into our solar system.
