In the early days of the [[Federation]], [[Earth Starfleet]] personnel wore uniforms with a patch Starfleet insignia on the right shoulder and an [[assignment patch]] on the opposite shoulder. (''[[Star Trek: Enterprise]]'') By the [[2230s]] [[decade]], some Starfleet personnel wore a delta-shield shaped embroidery. The delta-shield shape had been devised based on [[Zefram Cochrane]]'s graphed equation of warp fields, and had previously been used as a symbol by [[UESPA]] on the [[Friendship One]] [[space]] [[probe]]. Crew assigned to {{USS|Kelvin|NCC-0514}} wore an outline of that insignia on their uniforms. ({{n|ST|Federation}}, {{e|TOS|Charlie X}},{{mnc|TOS|{{dis1|Star Trek|2009}}}}) By the uniform designs of the [[2240s]], Starfleet personnel wore assignment insignia based on their vessel assignments. Some such mission patch designs included the delta shield, and Starfleet also adopted a more stylized version of the insignia, elongated and presented sideways as it had been on the Earth Starfleet's patch, in the pennant designation of fleet vessels. This version was also used in some vessels' assignment patches. (''[[Star Trek: The Original Series]]''; ''{{com|Crew}}''; {{e|ENT|In a Mirror, Darkly|These Are the Voyages...}}) In the [[2270s]], Starfleet Command adopted the mission patch of the {{USS|Enterprise|NCC-1701}} as the insignia for its own assignment patch and as the symbol of Starfleet on vessel pennants. Individual mission patches fell into disuse a few years later, with all personnel adopting the delta shield as their badge of uniform. ({{r|TOS|Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise}}, {{mnc|TOS|The Motion Picture|The Wrath of Khan}}) The badge would be utilized as a [[communicator badge]] in the [[24th century]], and redesigned as the various communicators used in the [[2350s]], [[2370s]] and eventually, the [[2380s]].
