Jeremy Hansen's patch for the Artemis II mission

This patch was created for Canadian Space Agency astronaut Colonel Jeremy Hansen in honour of the historic Artemis II mission to the Moon by Anishinaabe artist Henry Guimond of the Turtle Lodge.

Its shape and the animals are a reference to the Seven Sacred Laws, a traditional First Nations teaching selflessly shared with Jeremy in preparation for his journey around Grandmother Moon. This is but one example of the many rich teachings found in the diverse cultures of Indigenous Peoples, the first explorers. (Credit: Canadian Space Agency)
