Summary

DescriptionNASA Astronaut Group 15 patch.png	English: The insignia for NASA's 15th group of astronaut trainees nicknamed "The Flying Escargot". The patch of the Group XV Astronaut Class of 1995 incorporates the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station suspended above the Earth as the primary elements of NASA's current and future space exploration program. These elements are on a field of blue containing seven stars representing the original seven astronauts (and the Challenger crew ?). The Shuttle is connected by silver streamers to the gold Astronaut symbol representing the award of the silver pin following completion of Astronaut Candidate training and the gold pin following each members's first flight. A rim containing 23 stars, representing each of the class members, surrounds the field. Finaly, flags of the class members countries symbolize the unique international diversity of Group XV.
