What's the red thing in the NASA logo?

lotusrootstarch:
the red chevron is a wing representing aeronautics.

mouser:
Don't believe a word lotusrootstarch says.  With some image magnification you can see clearly what is is:

40hz:
*Gack!!!* It's a bleedin' invasion! And this un's coming for us!!!

(And all this time I thought it would either be the zombies or the Reavers that ultimately did us in!) ;D

superboyac:
Ha!  Mouser/Lotus...nice.
I totally thought "Is that........a...vag??"
But that probably just says more about me than anything else.

Still, here's the weird thing: NASA has changed their logo over the years, yet they always retain that red thing.  Why?  It's not logo-esque in that it's not symmetrical, it's not particularly interesting.  What does it mean?  I'd like to know.

lotus says it's a wing.  I'll buy it.  I'd still like to know more about why they chose the wing like that.
