Summary

Description
English: The Flight Operations Directorate (FOD) at NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC) touches every program and part of sending humans to space. A spacecraft orbits over the Earth with the location of JSC marked by a white star, while the astronaut corps symbol launches upwards in the center. The sigma overlaps the central banner, indicating that missions to space are only possible through the sum work of all involved in Flight Operations. The presence of the moon and Mars, seen as crescents, are the future destinations for crewed spaceflight. Meanwhile, the past and present of space travel are represented by the "legacy ring" at the bottom of the circle, with emblems, from left to right, of NASA's human spaceflight programs through history: Project Mercury, Project Gemini, Project Apollo, Skylab, the Space Shuttle program, International Space Station program, Commercial Crew program, and Artemis program. Finally, the 17 lives lost in human spaceflight accidents are seen as blue stars, and the Latin at the top implores FOD to operate at a standard of perfection to prevent future accidents and further humanity's exploration of the cosmos: "achieve through excellence".
