Today is National Tartan Day!! Two years ago, we proudly announced that the Earthrise Tartan, designed by Steven Patrick Sim, was adopted as the official tartan for the Scot Forge Aerospace Team!🌎 In 2013, Steven Sim found his inspiration for the tartan design while looking at the world-famous photograph ‘Earthrise,’ taken aboard Apollo 8 during lunar orbit by astronaut Will Anders on December 24th, 1968. The tartan reminds us of how precious and unique our planet is. “Thus inspired by earthlight, the tartan prompts us to remember our common humanity. It reminds us of the humility we should all share with each other, that despite all the differences and contentions that exist among us, we are all from the same source.”- Steven Sim. Here is where Mr. Sim found some of his inspiration behind the tartan: - The colors you see in the tartan represent Earth, Space and the Moon. - Six colors in the tartan represent the six days of the mission. - The total thread count (147) represents the total hours of the mission. - The 68 black threads represent the year 1968, the year the mission took place. - The three black stripes represent the crew members. Scot Forge is proud to wear a tartan that represents so much. Our team of employee-owners are dedicated to providing mission-critical components to the aerospace industry so that we may continue to discover the unknowns and push the boundaries of our scientific and technical limits. https://lnkd.in/gq3PFn2T
