Brent Ward Jett (*5. října 1958, Pontiac, stát Michigan, USA), americký letec, důstojník a kosmonaut. Ve vesmíru byl čtyřikrát.
Život
Studium a zaměstnání
Na Floridě vychodil základní i střední školu a pak pokračoval ve studiu na vojenské námořní akademii US Naval Academy v Annapolis. Ukončil jej v roce 1981.
Po několika letech pokračoval ve studiu postgraduální nástavbou na námořní akademii v Monterey. Dostudoval v roce 1989 a působil poté jako pilot na letadlové lodi USS Saratoga.
V letech 1992 až 1993 absolvoval výcvik budoucích astronautů v Houstonu, od roku 1993 byl členem tamní jednotky kosmonautů NASA.
Lety do vesmíru
Na oběžnou dráhu se v raketoplánech dostal třikrát, pracoval na orbitálních stanicích Mir i ISS. Strávil ve vesmíru 41 dní, 18 hodin a 1 minutu. Byl 338 člověkem ve vesmíru.
- STS-72 Endeavour (11. leden 1996 – 20. leden 1996), pilot
- STS-81 Atlantis (12. ledna 1997 – 22. ledna 1997), pilot

Sts-81-patch.png
The crew patch for STS-81 , the fifth Shuttle-Mir docking mission, is shaped to represent the Roman numeral V. The Shuttle Atlantis is launching toward a rendezvous with Russia's Mir Space Station, silhouetted in the background. Atlantis and the STS-81 crew spent several days docked to Mir during which time Jerry M. Lineger (NASA-Mir-4) replaced astronaut John Blaha (NASA-Mir-3) as the U.S. crew member onboard Mir. The U.S. and Russian flags are depicted along with the names of the shuttle crew.

Sts-97-patch.svg
This is the crew insignia for STS-97, which will deliver, assemble, and activate the U.S. electrical power system on board the International Space Station (ISS). The electrical power system, which is built into a 47-foot integrated truss structure known as P6, consists of solar arrays, radiators, batteries, and electronics. P6 will be attached to the Station using the Shuttle's robotic arm in coordination with spacewalking crewmembers that will make the final connections. The spacewalkers will then prepare P6 for the subsequent deployments of the large solar arrays and radiator, which are critical steps in the activation of the electrical power system. The 120-foot solar arrays will provide the power necessary for the first ISS crews to live and work in the U.S. segment.
The crew patch depicts the Space Shuttle docked to ISS in low Earth orbit after the activation of the P6 electrical power system. Gold and silver are used to highlight the portion of ISS that will be installed by the STS-97 crew. The Sun, central to the design, is the source of energy for ISS.

STS-115 patch.png
This is the STS-115 insignia. The patch was designed by Graham Huber, Gigi Lui, and Peter Hui in conjunction with York University in Toronto, Canada. This mission continues the assembly of the International Space Station (ISS) with the installation of the truss segments P3 and P4. Following the installation of the segments utilizing both the shuttle and the station robotic arms, a series of three space walks will complete the final connections and prepare for the deployment of the station's second set of solar arrays. To reflect the primary mission of the flight, the patch depicts a solar panel as the main element. As the Space Shuttle Atlantis launches towards the ISS, its trail depicts the symbol of the Astronaut Office. The starburst, representing the power of the sun, rises over the Earth and shines on the solar panel. The shuttle flight number 115 is shown at the bottom of the patch, along with the ISS assembly designation 12A (the 12th American assembly mission). The blue Earth in the background reminds us of the importance of space exploration and research to all of Earth's inhabitants. The NASA insignia design for shuttle flights is reserved for use by the astronauts and for other official use as the NASA Administrator may authorize. Public availability has been approved only in the forms of illustrations by the various news media. When and if there is any change in this policy, which is not anticipated, the change will be publicly announced.
