Kathleen Hallisey "Kate" Rubins, född 14 oktober 1978 i Farmington, Connecticut, är en amerikansk astronaut, uttagen till astronautgrupp 20 i juli 2009.
Hon påbörjade sin första rymdresa den 7 juli 2016, och blev därmed den 60:e kvinnan i rymden.
Den 14 oktober 2020 påbörjade hon sin andra rymdfärd.
10 december 2020 valde Nasa ut henne till en av 18 personer till deras Artemisprogram. Det är tänkt att Nasa ska placera en människa på månen år 2024. Och kanske blir Kathleen första kvinnan på månen.[2] I ett första skede handlar det dok om att vara NASA:s representanter, i NASA:s samarbete med de olika företagen som utvecklar utrustning för Artemisprogrammet.

The Expedition 48 crew insignia
- The 48th Expedition to the International Space Station (ISS) marks nearly 16 years of continuous human presence at the orbital outpost. The elements of the crew patch include ISS solar arrays illuminated by the setting sun, the Earth’s horizon at sunset, the Moon, and stars. The simple portrayal of the unique vantage point signifies the incremental contribution of a single international expedition off the planet to the larger endeavor of human space exploration and discovery.
International Space Station (ISS) Expedition 63 mission insignia, incorporating a multitude of elements, such as a stylized 63 in the orbit traces, a boot print on the lunar surface.
- The Expedition 63 patch represents an intersection of the past and the beginning of a new dawn in human spaceflight as we continue to inhabit the International Space Station (ISS), aim towards returning to the moon and plan for the journey to Mars.
- Thirteen illuminated stars along the top of the patch commemorate the Apollo 13 celebrating its 50th anniversary during Expedition 63. The swoosh in the shape of the number "63" orbiting around the earth and moon honors the Apollo program and the future missions to go beyond low earth orbit.
- The atom, shown overlaid on a vibrant sunrise, is the Expedition 63 crew's call sign symbolizing the energy to revolve, or orbit around a nucleus or in their case, the Earth. The international crew depicts the importance of the collaboration in preserving the ISS as a microgravity and space environment research laboratory.
International Space Station (ISS) Expedition 64 mission insignia
- The Expedition 64 patch shows the International Space Station illuminated by the city lights of earth. The illumination of the space station modules represents the enduring partnership and continuous human presence on station for 20 years. The modules from all partner countries represent the international cooperation, which sustains this presence in space. The aurora and light behind the horizon are beautiful features of our home planet, and the Moon and stars in the background shows our future exploration beyond Earth.
