NASA brings back its iconic “worm” logo to mark return of human spaceflight

From Ars Technica:
"NASA originally planned to announce that it was bringing its iconic "worm" logo back on Wednesday, but the agency was afraid people would take it as an April Fools' Day joke.

Happily, it most certainly is not. The worm has returned, and that's no joke."

I have always been a fan of this NASA logo. I'm thrilled to see it back in use again.
