Bit of fun for those of you of a lyrical bent. We're working on an embroidered mission patch for our Low Orbit Helium Assisted Navigator (LOHAN) project (first rough graphic above), and need a suitably stirring motto to go with it.
We've already got plenty of daft ideas from Register readers (and a few good ones too). If you fancy getting involved and perhaps winning one of the finished patches, there are details here. The deadline for submissions is Friday, so dust off your Latin dictionaries.

Nick, yeah... I haven't met those guys yet but I totally bought the messenger bag they sell with their logo.
@Lester: Colei Canis Volare?
@Aaron: I'm going to write Semper Cadentes on my drone. Awesome.
LOHAN - Using Helium to get high .... :D
What goes up...
@Bill: We need the Latin for "Flying Colei canis" I reckon
roswellflighttestcrew.com has my favorite motto: semper cadentes , which means "always crashing" or "always falling." It'd be appropriate for an orbiting vehicle, which is always falling, in a way. But I guess you want something original.
I'd go with 'because we can' or 'who's your daddy ? or perhaps 'If errors are made others will be blamed'
@ Dan Murray
I just wish you'd just leave Lindsay alohan
There's a burnt-out celebrity and/or Parent Trap joke in here somewhere...
