On April 10, as the Orion capsule carved a blazing arc through Earth's atmosphere above the Pacific, a woman from Germantown sat aboard a surveillance aircraft and became the voice between the heavens and mission control. Arianna Haven, a mission systems engineer at NASA's Langley Research Center, helped guide the Artemis II lunar mission home — not from a console on the ground, but from the sky itself, watching history descend in real time. Her work with the SCIFLI team, collecting thermal and visual data through a six-minute silence that swallowed all other contact, reminds us that the great
