I'd definitely recommend losing the dark dot (planet). It doesn't really seem to tie in too well with the other elements.

If you're going to remove things though, might as well try removing the shaded green circle as well as the swoosh and dark dot (planet). Once those are gone, consider moving the coloured squares down a bit so they're in line or just above the text and you're good to go. Simple, clean and easily duplicated in print and onscreen.
