Book Review: Return to Launch

🇺🇸 · Huntsville Alabama L5 Society (HAL5) - Project HALO · National Space Society

Category: Nonfiction Reviewed by: Casey Suire Title: Return to Launch: Florida and America’s Space Industry Author: Stephen C. Smith Format: Hardcover/Kindle Pages: 348 Publisher: University of Florida Press Date: March 2026 Retail price: $38.00/$36.10 ISBN: 978-1683406563 Find this book On March 24, NASA unveiled an ambitious plan to construct a lunar base. Infrastructure for the proposed outpost includes robotic and crewed landers, habitat modules, Lunar Terrain Vehicles (LTVs), MoonFall drones, lunar communication satellites, and power generation systems. Furthermore, NASA will pause work on the Lunar Gateway space station. Instead, Lunar Gateway’s Power and Propulsion Element (PPE) will be repurposed as the SR-1 Freedom spacecraft. In December 2028, NASA plans to send SR-1 Freedom to Mars using nuclear electric propulsion (NEP). Upon arrival on Mars, SR-1 Freedom will deploy Skyfall, a fleet of several Ingenuity-class helicopters. On that same day, the University of Florida Press released Return to Launch: Florida and America’s Space Industry . First-time author Stephen C. Smith spent a decade working at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex; this employment influenced this book. Return to Launch covers nearly eight decades of Florida space activity. From the beginning, the Sunshine State factored prominently in the American space program. Smith opens his book with the very first launch from Cape Canaveral, FL: Bumper 8 on July 24, 1950. Curiously, the Pentagon initially wanted a launch site in El Centro, California. However, the Mexican government objected to rockets flying over Baja. The second choice, Cape Canaveral, won. Just imagine how different space history would be without Cape Canaveral. Since Bumper 8, thousands of rockets have launched from Florida’s Space Coast. The book’s title, Return to Launch , embraces Florida’s role in the new commercial space age. After many painful years following the space shuttle’s retirement, Florida’s space industry is back. The book’s cover photo of a Florida night launch, captured by Julia Bergeron of NASASpaceflight, reflects this newfound optimism. Smith spent four years writing Return to Launch . This isn’t too surprising. The book is heavily detailed and researched yet not boring. Noticeably, the book does lack a bibliography. Instead, there is a “Notes” section that is eighty-three pages long, occupying approximately the last quarter of the book. Throughout his narrative, Smith likes to cite newspaper articles. Florida newspapers are a popular source: Florida Today, Miami Herald , Orlando Sentinel , Tampa Bay Times , etc. Errors are infrequent and inconsequential. On page 37, it’s claimed that the first SpaceX Falcon 9 launch was in December 2010. Later, on page 222, the correct date of June 2010 is used. SpaceX Crew-1 launched in November 2020, not in September 2020. The Ansari X Prize is mistakenly written as the “XPRIZE Cup.” Outside of these minor errors, Smith always gets the facts straight. He devotes lots of time discussing the struggles and successes of Space Florida. The organization began as the Florida Space Authority in 1989. The goal of FSA was to “create a ‘commission on space’ that would recommend how the state could compete with other states for aerospace business and investment.” By 2006, FSA consolidated with other Florida space agencies to become Space Florida. Some of Space Florida’s facilities include Exploration Park, the Space Life Sciences Lab, and the Launch and Landing Facility (formerly the Shuttle Landing Facility). Other Space Florida sites include Launch Complexes LC-20 and LC-46. In 2019, Space Florida leased LC-20 to Firefly Aerospace. However, at the time of this writing, Firefly hasn’t utilized LC-20. In 2002, SpaceX considered LC-46 for launching Falcon 1. Instead, SpaceX settled on the Kwajalein Atoll in the Pacific. In recent years, LC-46 hosted an abort test of the Orion spacecraft and a few launches for Astra. Smith also covers Florida’s role in NASA’s human spaceflight program. Whereas pace journalist Eric Berger likes to write books about SpaceX engineers, and Christian Davenport specializes in billionaire space entrepreneurs, in Return to Launch Stephen Smith explores the politics of space. He discusses the space policies of several presidential administrations, spending the most time on Obama’s space policy. How Obama’s cancellation of the Constellation program affected Florida is a major topic in later chapters. Former NASA Deputy Director (and former NSS Executive Director) Lori Garver wrote about this period in her book Escaping Gravity . Smith contends that his book is “the rest of the story.” Return to Launch also details George W. Bush’s 2004 Vision for Space Exploration and his administration’s decision to retire the space shuttle. Additionally, Smith analyzes JFK’s Apollo decision. During his legendary speech at Rice University, Kennedy famously proclaimed, “We choose to go to the Moon!” However, behind the scenes, JFK worried about Apollo’s high cost. He also commented in a taped 1962 meeting that, “I’m not that interested in space.” Even today, many space advocates might not be aware of this statement. Weeks before his assassination, JFK proposed a joint American-Soviet lunar mission during a United Nations speech. Of course, this idea never happened. In the book, Apollo’s main justification was prestige. It’s impossible to write a proper book about Florida space politics without Bill Nelson. Had Return to Launch been written as a novel, the multi-hyphenate Nelson probably would be the main character. Smith writes an entire chapter solely on Nelson’s early political career and shuttle mission. Later chapters examine Nelson’s influence on recent U.S. space policy. It’s no secret that NASA’s human space efforts often lack a clear goal. Just look at the last three decades: X-33, VentureStar, X-34, Orbital Space Plane, Constellation, Asteroid Retrieval Mission, etc. Smith discusses every canceled program. It remains to be seen how Jared Isaacman’s Moon base plans will unfold. One important question is what will happen to the Space Launch System (SLS)? Since the announcement of the SLS program, many have criticized the massive booster’s high price tag and low flight rate. Unflattering names for SLS include the “Senate Launch System” and “rocket to nowhere.” Smith notes that “never before in NASA’s history had a major program been proposed with a primary objective of protecting legacy contractors and their workforce.” During the recent Moon base announcement, NASA suggested that SLS could be phased out after Artemis V. Instead, a cheaper commercial rocket, such as Falcon Heavy, New Glenn, or Vulcan Centaur, could boost the Orion spacecraft into low Earth orbit (LEO). Orion would then dock with a Human Landing System (HLS), and the combined stack will fly to the Moon. On April 1, an SLS rocket, launching from Pad 39B in Florida, sent the Artemis II crew to circle the Moon. Hooray! Humanity has returned to the Moon. It’s about time. Overall, Smith’s debut book Return to Launch is a solid choice to learn about Florida’s space economy. The Sunshine State will always be vital to future space exploration. Recommended reading for space fans. © 2026 Casey Suire NSS index of over 500 book reviews

Planet Earth, You Are a Crew: The Meaning and Impact of Artemis II

🇺🇸 · Huntsville Alabama L5 Society (HAL5) - Project HALO · National Space Society

By Burt Dicht NSS Space Coast Correspondent NSS Managing Director of Membership More than half a century after the last Apollo astronauts left the Moon’s neighborhood, four human beings climbed aboard an Orion spacecraft, rode a pillar of 8.8 million pounds of thrust into the Florida sky, and flew farther from home than anyone in history. When they came back nine days later, splashing down in the Pacific southwest of San Diego on April 10, 2026 — they brought with them something the world had been quietly starving for: proof that we can still do hard things, together. Artemis II was, on paper, a test flight. In practice, it was a declaration that the next era of lunar exploration had begun. A Crew Forged by Excellence The crew of Artemis II did not look like the crews of Apollo: Commander Reid Wiseman, a naval aviator and former chief of NASA’s astronaut office; Pilot Victor Glover, a Navy test pilot and the first Black astronaut assigned to a lunar mission; Mission Specialist Christina Koch, who already held the record for the longest single spaceflight by a woman and had participated in the first all-female spacewalk; and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen, a Royal Canadian Air Force F-18 pilot and the first non-American ever sent beyond low Earth orbit. This crew was selected for one reason: they were the right people for a mission of extraordinary complexity. That it also included the first woman and the first person of color assigned to a lunar mission reflects the depth and breadth of today’s astronaut corps, richer in experience, talent, and perspective than ever before. Jeremy Hansen asked the crowd at their welcome home to look at the four of them standing together. “When you look up here,” he said, “you’re not looking at us. We are a mirror reflecting you. And if you like what you see, then just look a little deeper. This is you.” Their bond was visible to anyone who watched. When Commander Wiseman spoke at the crew’s post-mission welcome in Houston, he turned to his crewmates and said simply: “Victor, Christina, and Jeremy, we are bonded forever.” It was a reminder that beyond the records and headlines, four people had just shared something only a handful of humans in history can fully understand. Seeing the Moon Through Human Eyes For six hours on April 6, the crew took turns at Orion’s windows while the others relayed observations to the ground. It was the first time in more than fifty years that human eyes had studied the lunar surface from close range. They saw green hues shimmering around Aristarchus crater. They described olive and brown tones across ancient plains. They viewed the immense Orientale basin on the Moon’s far side, a 600-mile impact structure never before seen directly by human eyes. Then came one of the mission’s most remarkable moments. During a solar eclipse, as Orion aligned so that the Moon blocked the Sun, the crew observed six meteorite impact flashes on the lunar surface, brief pinpricks of light lasting only milliseconds. Scientists on the ground had not expected the crew to see even one. They saw six. And in a moment that felt both intimate and historic, the crew proposed names for two unnamed craters they could see with the naked eye near the Orientale basin. One they called Integrity — after the name they had given their spacecraft. The other they called Carroll — in memory of Commander Wiseman’s late wife, Carroll Taylor Wiseman, who passed away in 2020. The names will be formally submitted to the International Astronomical Union. It was, quietly, one of the most human moments of the entire mission. Even on a flyby mission, Artemis II was already returning science that will shape future lunar exploration. Back on Earth, the reaction inside NASA’s Science Evaluation Room was every bit as memorable as what the crew saw through Orion’s windows. When the astronauts reported the meteorite impact flashes and the subtle variations in color across the lunar surface, the room erupted in excitement. There were audible screams of delight from scientists who had spent years preparing for this flyby. The lunar science lead, Dr. Kelsey Young, later said she hadn’t expected the crew to see so many impacts and that the surprise and shock were visible on her face in real time. That joy was contagious Watching the scientists respond with such visible excitement was a reminder that exploration is not only about machines and mission timelines. It is also about discovery — about the thrill of seeing something new and immediately understanding that it matters. For those of us following the mission, it was a joy in itself to watch that enthusiasm unfold. You could feel the years of preparation, the professional curiosity, and the sheer wonder of science happening live. It was one of the most uplifting moments of the mission. The Wonder of Seeing Earth But perhaps the most profound observations were not of the Moon, but of Earth. At a record distance of more than 252,000 miles from home, the crew looked back and saw our world as Apollo crews once did: small, luminous, and alone in the blackness. As Orion emerged from behind the Moon and communications were restored, Christina Koch’s voice came through from deep space with words that may become one of the defining reflections of the Artemis era: “When we burned toward the Moon, I said that we do not leave Earth — but we choose it. We will explore. We will build ships and visit again. But ultimately, we will always choose Earth. We will always choose each other.” From that distance, borders disappear. The divisions that seem so large from the surface become invisible. What remains is one fragile, shining world. That perspective may be the greatest gift of lunar exploration — not simply what we learn about the Moon, but what we rediscover about ourselves. Testing Orion: The Machine That Must Not Fail Artemis II was fundamentally a test flight, and Orion delivered. The trajectory was so precise that two of the planned outbound correction burns were canceled because they were unnecessary. The European Service Module performed flawlessly during translunar injection, placing Orion exactly where it needed to be. Engineers deliberately stressed the spacecraft’s systems, from life-support performance to manual handling and laser-based optical communications, proving capabilities that future lunar missions will depend upon. There were issues, as expected on a first crewed flight: the toilet malfunction, a water dispenser problem, and an early helium-system anomaly. That is precisely why Artemis II mattered. A test flight is where systems are proven with real people aboard. And then came the ultimate test: re-entry, and this one carried weight that went beyond the ordinary drama of returning from deep space. Orion’s heat shield carried a known flaw. After Artemis I, engineers had found unexpected cracking and charring across more than a hundred locations in the Avcoat material. NASA had studied the problem for nearly two years, redesigned the re-entry trajectory to reduce thermal stress, and made the difficult decision to fly Artemis II with the existing shield. There were engineers who publicly objected. The astronauts flew anyway — understanding exactly what they were accepting. Orion struck Earth’s atmosphere at approximately 25,000 miles per hour, with the heat shield enduring temperatures approaching 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit, roughly half the temperature of the Sun’s surface. It performed. Orion splashed down on target. The heat shield held. The Quiet Excellence of Mission Control While the world focused on the astronauts, hundreds of engineers, controllers, and scientists in Houston were doing what Mission Control has done since Mercury and Apollo: making the impossible look routine. Problems were handled with the calm professionalism that has long defined NASA flight operations. The return of the wake-up music tradition included a profoundly moving moment: a pre-recorded message from Jim Lovell — the late Apollo 8 and Apollo 13 astronaut — played for the crew on flyby day. Lovell, who passed away in 2025 at the age of 97, had recorded the message just months before his death, welcoming the Artemis II crew to his “old neighborhood” and passing the torch across generations. It was the last voice of Apollo, speaking directly to the first crew of the new lunar age. There were few dry eyes in Mission Control. This was not simply a new mission. It was the continuation of a story more than half a century in the making. What Comes Next With Artemis II now safely in the history books, the work truly begins. Over the coming months, NASA will conduct an exhaustive post-flight review of every aspect of the mission. Thousands of telemetry points from Orion’s systems — propulsion, life support, communications, guidance, and thermal protection — will be carefully analyzed. The astronauts themselves will undergo extensive debriefings, providing engineers and mission planners with invaluable insight into how the spacecraft performed with a crew aboard in deep space. Just as important, the Orion capsule itself will now become an object of intense study. From the condition of the heat shield and avionics systems to wear on crew interfaces and life-support hardware, every component will be inspected in detail. The lessons learned from Artemis II will directly shape procedures, hardware refinements, crew operations, and mission timelines for the flights that follow. That data now feeds directly into the next major milestone: Artemis III. Under NASA’s revised architecture, Artemis III is now planned as a 2027 Earth-orbit demonstration mission that will test rendezvous and docking operations between Orion and one or both commercial Human Landing Systems from SpaceX and Blue Origin. In many ways, it will serve as the modern equivalent of Apollo 9, proving the choreography and operational procedures required before committing astronauts to a lunar descent. If those demonstrations proceed successfully, NASA now targets Artemis IV in 2028 as the first crewed lunar landing of the Artemis era, humanity’s first return to the lunar surface since Apollo 17. Artemis II proved that we can once again send humans safely to lunar distance. What comes next is proving that we can land them and this time, begin building a sustained presence. A Personal Reflection: From Apollo to Artemis For me, this flight carried a meaning that is difficult to fully put into words. I was part of the Apollo Generation. As a boy, I remember hearing the television in our living room on Christmas Eve 1968 and learning that the crew of Apollo 8 were in orbit around the Moon. I was captivated. By the time Apollo 11 Moon Landing took place, I was ten years old, and like so many of my generation, I was inspired to dream bigger than I ever had before. That dream shaped my life. Apollo set me on the path to become an aerospace engineer and later to devote so much of my career to helping young people imagine futures for themselves in aviation and space. For more than fifty years, I have waited to see humanity once again send astronauts toward the Moon. To witness Artemis II, to see Orion rise from Florida skies, to follow the crew’s journey around the Moon, and to watch them return safely to Earth was more than a mission milestone. It was deeply emotional. It felt like seeing history resume. This flight reminded me why space exploration has always mattered so much. It is not only about technology or destinations. It is about possibility. It is about inspiring the next generation in the same way Apollo inspired mine. For those of us who grew up in the shadow of Apollo, Artemis II was more than a test flight. It was the opening chapter of a new lunar age. And after waiting more than fifty years, it was worth every moment.
