Barnawi will be the first Muslim, Saudi and Arab woman in space, the Saudi state news agency SPA earlier reported.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe logo embodies the noble goals of the Kingdom\u2019s scientific mission, which is centered around empowering people, protecting the planet and opening new horizons through the health and environmental sustainability researches the astronauts would conduct, SPA said.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs it is customary for all space flights to have an official logo for each mission, the emblem would be placed on the official uniform of the crew. The circular logo features the Kingdom\u2019s flag, representing the identity of the Saudi astronauts, and reflecting the Kingdom\u2019s heritage, history, cultural specificity, and traditions.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThis is reflected on the logo through the green flag that symbolizes the banner of Islam; the white color which is the symbol of purity and on which the two Shahadahs (Islamic testimony) were written; and the drawn sword that is one of the manifestations of the authentic and ancient Saudi heritage that confirms firmness in applying justice,\u201d SPA reported.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe logo also highlights the Kingdom\u2019s location on the world map, and the Saudi flag appears surrounded by the names of the two Saudi astronauts to show the home of the astronauts within the mission, it added.<\/p>\n<p>\nTwo radioactive beams that launch from the Kingdom into space, representing the two Saudi astronauts, is aimed at motivating the Saudi youth to take up interest in space science, raise awareness of science, technology, engineering and mathematics jobs, qualify competencies as well as promote higher education in the field of space.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Vision 2030 is also included in the logo as a nod to the Kingdom\u2019s aspirations and commitment to support space exploration efforts and reinforce the Saudi citizens\u2019 role in space programs and its fields of science and technology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saudi Space Commission unveils logo for Kingdom\u2019s space mission The logo embodies the noble goals of the Kingdom\u2019s scientific mission Updated 18 April 2023 Arab News April 18, 2023 08:46 Follow @arabnews RIYADH: The Saudi Space Commission has unveiled Saudi Arabia\u2019s official logo for its team of astronauts bound on a scientific mission to the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":152,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[24],"class_list":["post-151","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-related-photos-saudi-arabia-saudi-female-artists-showcase-saudi-craft-through-history-photos-saudi-arabia-new-program-to-boost-saudi-crafting-skills"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=151"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":159,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151\/revisions\/159"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/152"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cissar.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
