In 1961, the Vostok 1 launch made Yuri Gagarin the first human to fly in Earth orbit. 20 years later in 1981, after several launch scrubs, <a href="https://spacey.space/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NASA</a> launched STS-1 Columbia, the first orbital test flight of the Space Shuttle system, with astronaut test pilots John Young (of Apollo 16 Moon landing fame) and Bob Crippen. The combined anniversary is celebrated as "Yuri's Night" by space enthusiasts worldwide. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuri%27s_Night" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuri%27s_Night</a> <a href="https://spacey.space/tags/YurisNight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#YurisNight</a> <a href="https://spacey.space/tags/spacegeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#spacegeek</a>

For scale the patch has a diameter of 5cm (~2 inches). The camera is located on the turret at the end of the rover's robotic arm, so can be placed close to the targets.
