Summary

Description
English: The focal point of the Expedition XXIII emblem illustrates the beautiful planet Earth in the black expanse of space. The International Space Station (ISS) is shown traveling in its orbit around Earth. The ISS orbital path flies through the XXIII to show that this increment is building upon the missions that have gone on before and laying the groundwork for future missions. This illustrates the work being performed aboard the orbiting complex that will lead the way to eventual missions to the moon, Mars and beyond. The mission designation uses Roman numerals to illustrate the home nations of the crew, which are also represented by their national flags. The two stars represent the two teams that make up this expedition crew.
Deutsch: Der Brennpunkt des Expedition-23-Emblems illustriert den wunderschönen Planeten Erde in der schwarzen Weite des Alls. Die Bahn der Internationalen Raumstation (ISS) im Orbit fliegt durch die XXIII um zu zeigen, dass dieser Zugewinn auf den vorherigen Missionen aufbaut und die Grundlage für zukünftige Missionen ist. Dies zeigt die Arbeit an Bord des Orbitalkomplexes, die letztendlich den Weg zu Missionen zum Mond, Mars und darüber hinaus ebnen wird. Die Missionsbezeichnung benutzt römische Ziffern um die Heimatnationen der Crew zu zeigen, die durch ihre Nationalflaggen repräsentiert werden. Die zwei Sterne symbolisieren die zwei Teams, die diese Expeditionscrew ausmachen.
