What are your claims?
1) NASA observed an object and developed their logo to be like it?
2) An object was constructed in space near the sun in homage to the NASA logo?
3) Coincidence?
I'm going with 3!!

I doubt it.
The NASA symbol looks like a quick random design to be honest.

What put me over 50% was the fact that NASA DOCTORS IMAGES and quite frequently cuts videos when objects appear......

NASA insignia
In the NASA insignia design, the sphere represents a planet, the stars represent space, the red chevron, in the alternate shape of the constellation Andromeda, is a wing representing aeronautics (the latest design in hypersonic wings at the time the logo was developed). Then there is the orbiting spacecraft going around the wing. Although known officially as the insignia, NASA's round logo was nicknamed the "meatball".
Welcome to the STEREO Learning Center IMAGE ARTIFACTS - TELESCOPE AND CAMERA DEFECTS Some artifacts are caused by defects in the cameras or optics used to take the images. The most noticeable example of a camera defect is shown below.
This is a small fiber on the surface of the Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) camera for the COR2 telescope on STEREO Ahead. The total length of the fiber is just 1 millimeter. It has been there since launch. Most likely this fiber came off of one of the clean room wipes used during the assembly of the camera. Even though the material of the wipes is selected to shed as few particles as possible, the occasional particle does end up inside the instrument.
