The latest Soyuz patch is an unusual and fun design. It features the Soyuz crew vehicle with the Earth as a back drop. The astro/cosmonauts are featured linking hands while flying free in space signifying the international element. The design is contained with a soyuz capsule shaped patch.
The '100' signifies the fact that this is the 100th manned flight of the soyuz vehicle.Lonchakov's call sign will be Titan, as symbolized in the patch by the astronauts holding Earth, in the spirit of Atlas.
NASA Astronaut Mike Fincke and Cosmonaut (Soyuz TMA-13 commander) Yuri Lonchakov are joined by Richard Garriott the latest fare paying 'Spaceflight Participant'. Richard, a self made multimillionaire, is the son of former NASA Astronaut Owen K. Garriott.
