One of the most mind-blowing use of my fonts in recent memory is now on @FontsInUse@typo.social : The Canadian Space Agency used my font Condor on the Artemis II mission patch for astronaut Jeremy Hansen, who recently returned from a 10-day voyage around the moon and back. The patch features artwork by Anishinaabe artist Henry Guimond and features symbols from the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. It’s truly wild that some letters I drew have traveled to space! https://fontsinuse.com/uses/76499/jeremy-hansen-artemis-ii-mission-patch

@djrrb@mastodon.social I also love that they picked a less obvious or freely available typeface! Condor has long been an underappreciated favorite.
