The Science Channel received a complete graphical overhaul on December 22, 2007, removing the word "The" from its name and becoming simply Science Channel. Its new identity was made by Thornberg & Forester, and included a completely new logo. The logo features the letters "Sc", which are also the same letters used in the symbol for the element Scandium. The typeface used is a modified version of ITC Avant Garde Gothic.

Sometime in 2010, Discovery Communications introduced a 3D version of the logo, which was also used as a onscreen bug.
