- "The STS-53 insignia shows the Space Shuttle Discovery rising to
- new achievments as it trails the symbol of the Astronaut Office
- against a backdrop of the American flag. The five stars and
- three stripes also symbolize the mission number -- STS-53 -- and
- America's continuing commitment to world leadership in space.
- The pentagonal shape of the patch represents the Department of
- Defense and its support of the Space Shuttle Program. The band
- delineating the flag from space includes the four colors of the
- military services of the crew members."
