I predict a lot of pleased fans regarding the new uniforms... a lot of fan survey responses went into them
If they are anything like they have been rumored to be, I'll be buying my first Astros jersey shortly.

His description was that it’s the same star they are using now, except a little ‘sharper,’ and in blue and orange. The wordmark uses a font that is similar to what they were using in the ’60s and ’70s. No word on the uniform, though.”
I myself would prefer the closed star with the H too, but who knows...just a report. I do like that I hear blue and orange and 60s 70s lettering.
maybe, just maybe (HOPEFULLY), we can be one of those teams that has 2 sets of hats with different logos.. maybe we can see the H & Star hat make its return, there are a few teams already with multiple hat designs.. http://www.cardboardconnection.com/2011-best-and-worst-hats-in-major-league-baseball

Since no one has said it yet, that logo sucks. It sucks big, sweaty, hairy donkey balls. Would rather the Astros go with Rainbow guts than that. Or even the Rocket cartoon pajamas. Or even those ridiculous shorts the White Sox wore in the late 70s.
Well I like that it brings back space but no way that can be it as already mentioned how would that look on a hat? I'd be disappointed if it was anything but a closed star with the H
