Its crew includes the first person of color, the first woman, and the first Canadian to travel beyond low earth orbit.\n\nJeremy Hansen, the Canadian astronaut, wore a special mission patch created specifically for him by the Canadian Space Agency. It was designed by Anishinaabe artist Henry Guimond of the Turtle Lodge. Its heptagonal shape and the animals shown on it reference to the Seven Sacred Laws, a traditional First Nations teaching that emphasizes Respect, Love, Courage, Honesty, Wisdom, Humility, and Truth. The agency’s webpage and press video go into greater detail about the symbolism of each element on the patch.\n\nThe Canadian Space Agency video about the patch and its symbolism:\n\nJeremy Hansen sharing the patch while in space, during a Space-to-earth connection event:\n\nOn the patch, Hansen’s name is typeset prominently on the bottom in the heaviest weight of my typeface **Condor**. (As far as I know, this is the first time a font of mine has traveled to space!) The agency’s name is typeset in **Helvetica** in both English and French.\n\nOther styles of Condor have also been used extensively by the Canadian Space Agency for its mission poster, its space-to-earth connection events, and other video documentation of the mission.\n\n\n\n\n_**Source: www.asc-csa.gc.ca **Canadian Space Agency.
