English: This Soyuz TMA-5 patch was designed by Alex Panchenko:
"I've started design works of patches for Soyuz TMA-5 (ISS-10 flight) back in July 2004, when first sketches - drawings made in Starbucks coffee and later presented them for approval to Soyuz commander S. Sharipov. It was still not clear who is going to be third crew member of Soyuz and in this case I was preparing for Soyuz TMA-5 flight design in two variants (with name of Polonsky and with name of Shargin - both candidates on third seat in Soyuz).
During design work with Soyuz TMA-5 patch my idea was to present Soyuz panels as symbolic flags of Russia and United States, and base of design is a window view outside. Crew names are in the same order as their actual seats inside Soyuz. Commander S. Sharipov in center, L. Chiao on the left from commander and Y. Shargin on the right side."
