This is close, but not the same as the original. The white stripes are too wide, breaking up the white star outline too much. Look at the real logo and the white stripes are narrower than either the blue or red stripes. I have several stickers, patches and even a flag, so I know what it's supposed to look like.

the logo painted on the NASA VAB had wider white stripes and darker blue and red colors. it also had more rounded tips of the star points. perhaps there should be two different versions of this image.

the actual logo specifications are not self-consistent; in the text it says to divide the stripes as 5-3-5, but in the diagram it shows 4-3-4, so which is correct?

the may 2021 version of this image has the rounded tips centered on the points of the star, which is wrong. the arcs should rotate about point A which is slightly farther outside of the star point. A is defined by a circle with radius 3/4 of the length of one side of the pentagon in which the star is inscribed, and radial lines emanating from the points of the star. this gives the stripes a slightly less rounded appearance.
