The Golden Sun was a Terran Confederation military medal. It was awarded for surviving the destruction of one's ship. The medal was only ever awarded once to a pilot in his career.

The recipient was typically warned, before receiving the medal, that the award was a one-time event and that subsequent ejections without justifiable reason would be met with disciplinary action.

Peter Halcyon
Armstrong. Come in. I need to speak with you.
Christopher Blair
Yes, sir?
Peter Halcyon
You're about to receive a Golden Sun for ejecting and surviving...
but you only get one of those per career.

After that, ejecting is just a waste of the Confederation's starfighters. After that, ejecting just wastes the Confederation's starfighters.

That's all then, Lt.
Dismissed.

The medal ceremony itself followed the same format as many of the other ceremonies typically performed to celebrate a pilot's achievements.
