Thinking about the importance of weather forecasting to space exploration -- the launches, splashdowns, and landing that all depend on knowing which way the wind is blowing (and how fast) -- I came across this piece written by @AstroKatie. Her grandfather was in change of the weather forecast for Apollo 11's return to Earth. The crew survived because of his efforts.https://qspace.fqxi.org/news/61123/losing-neil-armstrong?hero_title_option=0#Artemis2 #Apollo11
