A Bold New Look for NASA-JPL

A giant version of NASA's classic red, white, and blue logo now proudly adorns a building that has played a central role in space-exploration history. A new 30-foot NASA logo has been installed on the side of the Spacecraft Assembly Facility at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California. The insignia – designed in 1959 and nicknamed "the meatball" – went up on Oct. 17. "We have two strands of DNA – one NASA and one Caltech. We wanted to proudly show our NASA heritage with this logo," said JPL Director Michael Watkins. "With the appearance of the new sign, I think that more than a few people will be surprised to realize there's a NASA center tucked away right here in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains."
