As NASA’s Artemis II carried humans around the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years, we are reminded that every new step in space exploration stands on the shoulders of pioneers who made the first lunar age possible.
One of them was Dr. Robert E. Shurney, a devoted Adventist and NASA engineer whose work supported Apollo, Skylab, and the lunar rover.
From Apollo to Artemis, his legacy reminds us that faith, perseverance, and service can help carry humanity farther than we ever imagined.
