ABOUT T+ (Industry)Eng • SAWA VAUGHTERS

The concept is “Unite people in the space industry.”

T+ is a cap designed to contribute to the space industry.

The peak is based on the lines of multiple rocket trajectories, with the hope that there will be many safe and successful future launches.

The sense of familiarity created by everyone wearing the space-focused caps will help connect companies and people, and contribute to team building in the space industry as a whole.

We are currently developing T+ to contribute to the revitalization and development of the space industry in the future by connecting people who currently work in the space industry, people who aspire to work in the space industry, and people who love space.

The origin of the name “T+”

The designator “T-” is used when counting down to a rocket launch, indicating the time remaining. At the moment of launch, it switches to “T+” . The count-up begins, marking the start of Mission Elapsed Time (MET).
The name of the cap originates from this designator, T+, and it carries the wish that “your challenges will be passed on across generations and continue to mark the passage of time forever…”

“Challenges for the future continue and the adventure never ends. “

– Why is a hat designer involved in space？–

Growing up listening to stories about my grandfather who was a pilot, I developed an interest in the aviation field from a young age. During my middle school years, I was fascinated by space shuttles.

I would stay up late at night to watch launches on TV, I covered my room with space shuttle calendars, and I can’t even count how many times I watched the movie “Space Camp,” released in 1986.

Years later, witnessing the footage of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 returning to Earth was truly mind-blowing.

This reignited my admiration for everyone involved in space exploration, including engineers. As someone involved in hat design, I wondered if there was any way I could contribute to the space industry. This sparked the start of the T+ project.
