What do the symbols from the Serenity and Blue Sun logo mean?

For all things pin yin, the Pinyinary is an invaluable resource.

Yes. They translate the visable Chinese characters there too, both into the pin yin and English. ("Pin yin" is the romanization/transliteration of the Chinese, in case anyone is confused.)

Actually, there are several different ways to romanize the different dialects of China.

Though I beleive Hanyu Pinyin is the offical one used by the Chinese gov.

Yes. I should have said "a romanization/transliteration," rather than "the romanization/transliteration."
