The crew wanted to convey a sense of unity and togetherness, so Victor Glover, the Artemis II mission pilot, said he and his fellow astronauts designed their mission patch to make “A II” — for “Artemis II” — styled to look like the word “All.”

“We want everybody to be a part of this mission,” Glover said. “There’s a lot of little things that will divide us. It’ll fill in the cracks and expand, if we let it. And it would be nice if this could just be some caulking, some reinforcement to fill in those spaces, to prevent division.”

NASA's long-awaited Artemis II mission is set to launch four astronauts on a journey around the moon today. Liftoff is scheduled for 6:24 p.m. ET from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
