The Meatball vs The Worm The Battle of NASA Logos


This Gizmodo article tells the tale that Hillary Greenbaum which is story of the two NASA logos or as others have dubbed it: the Most Stupid Conversation That Ever Took Place at NASA.

You most likely recognize both of the logos here, but the red delta over a globe is considered the "official" due to this conversation here that is said to have taken place between NASA Administrator Dr. James Fletcher and Deputy Administrator Dr. George Low.
  • Fletcher: I'm simply not comfortable with those letters, something is missing.
  • Low: Well, yes, the cross stroke is gone from the letter A.
  • Fletcher: Yes, and that bothers me.
  • Low: Why?
  • Fletcher: (long pause) I just don't feel we are getting our money's worth!
