Including this feature helps distinguish the booster from previous versions and celebrates the continued evolution of Starship's hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-section-id=\"1njo6p3\" data-start=\"398\" data-end=\"420\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree Grid Fins:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"421\" data-end=\"696\"\u003eOne detail I specifically wanted to showcase was the new three grid fin configuration. Previous boosters featured four grid fins, so including the updated design immediately identifies this as a Version 3 booster while celebrating one of its most recognizable visual changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-section-id=\"1ygvgk3\" data-start=\"698\" data-end=\"726\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCryogenic Propellants:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"727\" data-end=\"1085\"\u003eI intentionally incorporated the white sections to indicate the locations of the CH₄ and LOX tanks while depicting the frost created by the cryogenic propellants inside. This was a deliberate design choice to ground the artwork in a real characteristic of the booster, making the patch feel more authentic to those familiar with Super Heavy's return profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-section-id=\"oqnuj9\" data-start=\"1087\" data-end=\"1122\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 13 Engine Landing Burn:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1123\" data-end=\"1490\"\u003eThe engine section was one of the most important elements for me. I wanted the bright exhaust plume to draw attention to the 13 center engines, representing Flight 13 and symbolizing the hope that it becomes the first Version 3 booster to successfully complete a 13-engine boostback burn. That milestone served as the inspiration and focal point of the entire design.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NASASpaceflight.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50544325984479,"sku":"13_pin","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0533\/4758\/2140\/files\/NSF_Starship_Flight_13_Patch_Design_e3fb1c06-9fb7-46cf-844c-93bfc5133613.png?v=1784217533","url":"https:\/\/shop.nasaspaceflight.com\/products\/starship-flight-13-pin","provider":"NASASpaceflight.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
