Space Superiority Systems Wing

These were my questions on the patch:
What are the 2 planets/moon left center? Moon? Mars?
Its certainly not earth. Earth is the curved blue background.
What are the 2 crosses above the 2 bodies that look like
Stars but are not? There are also tiny differences in them.
All the tufts on the wing are yellow/gold except the tufts
below the Israeli star and the 2 end tufts on the left wing.. They are blue.
What is the eagle clutching in his talons (looks like a scroll) and what is the Red white and blue ribbon sticking out of each end?
Which spacecraft is that below the talons?
There are 13 red and white stripes at the top left. They join at the
left with a field of blue and 7 stars, what does that mean?
Why is the space shuttle at the lower end of the ISS turned 45 degrees to the right? Is there any significance to that?

The photo is a hoax.
Future astronauts will ride into space in the Orion capsule, similar in design to the Apollo-era command module, but larger and more versatile, and capable of carrying six occupants -- twice as many as its predecessor. Orion will succeed the space shuttle as NASA's primary vehicle for human space exploration. Orion's first flight with astronauts onboard is planned for no later than 2015 to the International Space Station. Its first flight to the moon is planned for no later than 2020.
