This is an interesting video as we get to see the welcoming of the new space station commander. Interesting patches on their uniforms as well as the stickers posted on the outer surface of the space station by the hatch when it opens a little after 7 minutes in. Sad the video wasn't clear enough to recognize what they are. Thought maybe the stickers would include secret space missions that might be stuck there as new missions and crews arrive.

This would be the logical place for an ET craft to stop by and get their visitor intructions before visiting our planet...;)

It would make sense the space station be a logical point of contact? That would mean the station would have to be prepared as well for the visit and ready to roll out the red carpet.
