Description

Original embroidered patch for the GPS III-4 satellite, launched by the Falcon 9 Block 5 rocket on November 5, 2020, from SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The patch measures 4 x 4 and shows the F9 soaring into space high above Earth, which bears a small four-leaf clover; the sides feature patriotic flags and the upper and lower border contain text: "GPS III-4, SpaceX Falcon 9." In very fine condition. Built by Lockheed Martin, GPS III-4 is the fourth satellite to be deployed in the third-generation Global Positioning System. GPS III satellites provide three times greater accuracy and greatly enhanced anti-jamming capability relative to their predecessors.

Originates from the personal collection of a SpaceX board member.
