The Harmony Flight, launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California is the 24th Celestis mission, the 11th Earth Orbit mission. Harmony is the quality of creating a pleasing and consistent whole, forming an agreement or concord. Often used in association with the word “peace” and together promising long lasting value, harmony is a state or quality to be sought. For those onboard Harmony, there is a sense of being at one - in harmony - with the universe. For the families and loved ones of those onboard, there is the intent to re-establish harmony in their own lives as they celebrate and remember.
In Harmony of the Universe, Johan Kepler integrated theoretical astronomy and music, showing that the motions of the planets employ the same numerical ratios as the most harmonious musical scales. Kepler’s “harmonic law” still describes how planets, stars, satellites and galaxies revolve around one another in space.
In the Space Age, the name Harmony has been given to two high profile space station missions.
The Harmony module on ISS acts as an internal connecting port and passageway to international science labs and cargo spacecraft. Harmony is a utility hub, providing air, electrical power, water, and other systems essential to support life on the station.
On 29 April 2021, a Chinese Long March 5B rocket successfully launched the core module of China’s space station. Named Tiānhé (Harmony of the Heavens).
The Harmony Flight logo is from well-known designer and illustrator Eric Gignac. Eric’s portfolio also includes co-design of NASA Space Shuttle mission patches for the STS 128 and 133 missions.
