Small touches of yellow, bright blue and red punctuate the layout. Within the circle sit the Soyuz spacecraft, the International Space Station, a space shuttle, the sun and planet Earth, along with a gear bearing the letter e. Cyrillic lettering carries the surnames ГИДЗЕНКО, АВДЕЕВ and РАЙТЕ, alongside ЭО and the numeral 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoyuz TM-22 launched on September 3, 1994, carrying three cosmonauts, Yuri Gidzenko, Sergei Avdeyev and Michel Foale, to the Mir space station. The Soyuz stayed docked as a lifeboat for the crew throughout the 179-day expedition, while the mission carried out experiments in biology, materials science and space medicine alongside maintenance work. The badge honours that reliable, operational phase of the Soyuz-TM series, a chapter that helped inform later work on the International Space Station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for the Turn of the Hand\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is turned slowly in the hand, and this badge rewards that habit. Its heat-reactive surface keeps the artwork faint while the cup is cold, then brings it forward once a hot drink goes in, so the mission surfaces gradually, much like the story itself. Hold the cup a moment longer and the emblem comes into focus, making this a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves a good piece of spaceflight history with their morning coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"Default Title \/ 11oz","offer_id":48527829500184,"sku":"43066542145474382431","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/17246367545308217341_2048.jpg?v=1770574784","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/soyuz-tm-22-soyuz-programme-color-changing-mug-11oz","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
