NASA's chief brought back a famous old 'worm' logo for SpaceX to use during its historic first launch of astronauts
The logo was discontinued in the 1990s and swapped out for the now better-known logo featuring a blue circle, dubbed the "meatball."
NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said both logos are "awesome" — "I like both, so we're going with both," he said.
"The NASA style guide is very clear — the worm no longer exists — but I write the style guide," Bridenstine said. "So I made a determination that for this particular mission, on this particular day, we were going to bring back the worm. And we did."
