Among the items issued to astronauts are Velcro-backed name tags that can be attached to their flight suits and jackets. This name tag is a spare for Shuttle astronaut Robert L. Crippen, who served as pilot on the first Shuttle mission (STS-1, Columbia, in 1981) and as commander on STS-7 (Challenger, 1983), STS 41-C and STS 41-G (both Challenger, 1984). Astronauts chose the version of their name for these tags and wore different tags for different occasions. This one bears Crippen's nickname. NASA transferred a number of spare astronaut name tags to the Museum over the years.
