Margaritaville, the lifestyle brand inspired by Jimmy Buffett, has created a commemorative mission patch to generate financial support for scientific studies conducted through the International Space Station National Laboratory.
The design of the patch incorporates thematic elements associated with the Margaritaville brand — from tropical imagery to nautical symbols. One can also catch nods to the International Space Station National Laboratory in the form of a satellite symbol and the inscription 'ISS National Lab.' The patch and its likeness are said to be inspired by the iconic Jimmy Buffett.
All revenue from the sale of this item will be directed to the nonprofit Center for the Advancement of Science in Space®, which oversees the ISS National Lab and sponsors research projects in microgravity that are intended to yield benefits for life on Earth.
