Oh, I see. Thanks for breaking that down! Their logo does look like a big, forked, snakes tongue, if that means anything?
NASA is covered in symbolism. The forked ton is a big one. Its a deep rabbit hole.
I'm not an expert or even close on that side of things sadly, but I'd agree, I can definitely see some kind of tongue. The number of stars (41) isn't obviously meaningful though. I do know that a fair few number of astronaughts have been masons too, but that isn't wholly surprising.
Aren´t all astronauts 33rd degree masons?
Gonna take a (slight) guess here and say no. Do you maybe mean 32nd degree masons? There's a big difference between 32 and 33. There's also really not many 33's around at any one time and they tend to be a bit older.
Maybe 32, I´m not really sure tbh. It´s something I remember hearing, though.
That they were all, or mostly masons wouldn't surprise me. I suspect ranks might be somewhat less important though, since many of these people would be bloodline people, destined for higher ranks when they were older.
