Cause when going over possible slogans, some people came up with Latin ones and others came up with English ones.
And since most of the barnstormers aren’t Latin scholars (or in my case, anymore) the main phrasing came out in the more known language.
If you have a German or Italian one, I’d be happy to add it as an option as well.
That and the phrases in English are a bit too long to translate into Latin. Also, we wanted to give variety because some things just sound better in other languages. And the classical language of Latin is a favorite for famous quotes. <!-- s

And from Malakoi's suggestions, translated into Latin (forgive the bad case endings please!)
"Seeking truth."
"Quaestio veritas."
EDIT: Personally, I like "Semper Quaestio Veritas" "Always seeking the truth." People recognize 2/3 words without needing a translation and it looks official, IMO.
"Dissolving myths, finding answers."
"Solvo fabula, invenio refero." (It literally translates to 'dissolve the myth, find the answer'.)
