Former U.S. Space & Rocket Center CEO’s role in Artemis II launch
Reading time: 1 minute
Former U.S. Space & Rocket Center CEO Kimberly Robinson recently had the privilege to witness something that few on Earth get to experience.
Watching the Artemis II crew lift off on April 1, she saw years of her dedicated efforts at NASA continue to push humanity further than it has ever traveled from Earth.
Robinson’s 31-year career at NASA eventually led to her supporting Artemis I, the first human-rated launch vehicle to orbit the moon since Apollo, as a payload mission manager. She also helped develop the Space Launch System Program, which is responsible for creating the primary launch vehicle for the Artemis program.
She retired from the USSRC last summer.
