Thank you for the great answer! I did figure that this badge had to be issued to many different professionals in the Soviet space program and its affiliates. The amount of badge classes alone testifies to that. If there are FOUR different classes, then they must of been used by a wide variety of people with a wide variety of skills and experience. Personally I think this makes the badge series more interesting; many classes make collecting more fun. You can build up your collection little by little! Please keep me posted on any additional info you get on these badges.
You seem keen to discuss these matters, SO... One more question! I attached a few pictures of cosmonaut-badges. These ones were only awarded to those going/gone to space, right? What about the three classes? Chuck Norris -cosmonaut, OK-cosmonaut and rookie-cosmonaut?
By the way, I've accidentally seen lots of those US space badges on TV lately, must be some sort of collectors karma or something. :D
