A video recap of an event held at ESA’s ESRIN establishment in Italy, where ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano revealed the mission name and patch for his 2019 mission to the International Space Station.
The name Beyond was inspired by his fellow ESA astronauts. From the nearness to Earth of Thomas Pesquet’s mission, to the broadening scope of Alexander Gerst’s Horizons mission, Luca saw a path that push humanity even further for the benefit of all.
