Summary

Description
English: Emblazoned with a bold 35 for the 35th expedition to the International Space Station (ISS), this patch portrays a natural moonlit view of the Earth from the ISS at the moment of sunrise, one of the sixteen that occur each day at orbital velocity, with glowing bands of Earth's atmosphere dispersing the sun's bright light into primary colors. The Earth is depicted as it often appears from space, without recognizable coastlines or boundaries - just as the international endeavor of living and working together in space blurs technical and cultural boundaries between nations. The ISS is the unseen central figure of the image, since the view is from a window of the Space Station itself, commemorating full use of the Space Station as a long-duration dwelling from which humans can develop techniques and technologies to further explore. The crew points out, "The arc of the Earth's horizon with the sun's arrows of light imply a bow shooting the imagination to Mars and the cosmos where our species may one day thrive."
Deutsch: Geschmückt mit einer hervortretenden 35 für die 35. Expedition zur Internationalen Raumstation (ISS), stellt dieses Emblem einen naturgemäßen, vom Mond beschienenen Anblick der Erde von der ISS aus dar. Dies geschieht im Moment des Sonnenaufgangs, einer von 16 jeden Tag bei Orbitalgeschwindigkeit, mit leuchtenden Bändern, da das helle Sonnenlicht von der Erdatmosphäre in seine Grundfarben zerstreut wird. Die Erde ist dargestellt, wie sie häufig aus dem All erscheint - ohne erkennbare Küstenlinien oder Grenzen - so wie die internationale Bemühung des Zusammenlebens und -arbeitens im Weltraum die technischen und kulturellen Grenzen zwischen den Nationen verwischt. Die ISS steht unbemerkt im Mittelpunkt der Abbildung, weil der Blick aus einem Fenster der Raumstation selbst geht, der vollen Nutzung der Raumstation als Langzeitbehausung gedenkend, von wo aus Menschen Techniken und Technologien zum weiteren Forschen entwickeln. Die Besatzung führt aus: „Die Krümmung des Erdhorizonts mit den hellen Sonnenstrahlen schlägt einen imaginären Bogen zum Mars und dem Kosmos, wo unsere Spezies eines Tages gedeihen möge.“
