Something like a science foundation badge?

Sorry Nathan. I don't think so. I had to get my (50 examples) from a very special source.

If the thing is so hard to find, is it too uncommon to be guessed by anyone here?

I would hit the ceiling. We never found the scale though, perhaps yours is one of these:

You don't have to be as petite as that squirrel or to operate my trampoline in a cathedral. I posted its size: POST 19164532.

But is that a back yard, or the yard that fits in a wheely bin, or ..?
To use the Ohlook style of hyperbole, one would need to be a decrepit midget to use it indoors.

The International Building Code (external link) (penned by Americans, ignored internationally) declares a minimum 7ft 6. So your pres with self-declared height (!) would have 7" bounce space, which wouldn't be enough, even for his apparent level of exertion. The hair (external link) might make it by itself, of course.

Just by the way, I assume the macro was from a part not shown. The metal doesn't appear to be fixed to nylon, in that pic?

People of normal height really can use the trampoline in an ordinary room. Trust me, I've done it. You may be imagining higher jumps than suffice for aerobic exercise. This isn't the kind of equipment used for Olympic-style gymnastics.

I think the macro was indeed of another of the nylon/metal pairs, one to the left of those in the nonmacro. But the fabric and metal are firmly glued together in each pair, throughout the whole contact surface, not just at the edges. Any apparent looseness probably results from the shallow DoF that goes with macro. The thickness of the fabric interfered with getting good focus on both surfaces.

No. The represented object is very well known

Does the object signify membership in something or a status such as having won an award?

Not membership or award ... but it represents a position. Maybe a kind of statement? I would hazard a guess that you would be more likely to see this item in your home state than, say, Detroit.

Is a slogan printed on the item, like, just hypothetically, SAVE THE LGBTQ+ WHALES?

No. The colours define the message

What is shipping? But you are now very close.

Is it an indication that a product complies with an eco standard?

.
EU energy efficiency badge:

.

The Sustainable Shipping badge just matched quite well.
How you get a big boat around the world sustainably I have no idea. Gigatonnes of CO2... Fusion, "seawater as fuel"?!

Did you order 50 of these because they were for participants in a particular conference or similar event?
