TITUSVILLE, Fla. (AP) - For many spectators who filled parks, beaches and roads along Florida's Space Coast, the launch of two astronauts into orbit Saturday was a welcome accomplishment and a reprieve from the coronavirus pandemic, economic worries and now unrest in the streets. "With everything that's going on in this country right now, it's important that we do things extraordinary in life," said Neil Wight, a machinist from Buffalo who drove from upstate New York to watch the launch. "We've been bombarded with doom and gloom for the last six, eight weeks, whatever it is, and this is awesome." Dressed in a white astronaut costume, helmet included, Tampa lawyer Tim Engelbrecht marveled at the sight of the rocket lifting off 15 miles away, from a park in Titusville where he watched with his wife and children. "It's nice to come out here and have everybody of every stripe, every interest and every opinion come together for something we can all believe in and get behind," Engelbrecht said. "To see mankind and humankind take the next step is really kind of encouraging, especially in these tough times." Doug Marshburn of Deltona, Florida, shouted out, "USA. USA. We're back in the race," as the SpaceX rocket lifted through clouds above Kennedy Space Center. Around him, spectators screamed, whistled and clapped after shouting out the countdown from the 10-second mark. They lifted cameras and cellphones in the air to record the moment. "I'm very proud of the United States. We are back in the game. It's very satisfying," Marshburn said. Saturday's launch was the first of NASA astronauts from Florida since 2011, when the space shuttle program ended, and the first by a private company. Since then, Americans have flown on Russian...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - Apollo 13′s best known quotes originated not in space or Mission Control, but in Hollywood. Their moon-bound spacecraft wrecked by an oxygen tank explosion on April 13, 1970, the astronauts urgently radioed, "Houston, we've had a problem here." Screenwriters for the 1995 film "Apollo 13′′ wanted to punch that up. Thus was born "Houston, we have a problem." Even more artistic license was taken with NASA flight director Gene Kranz' mobilizing speech to his team in Houston. Kranz never declared, "Failure is not an option." Ask Kranz what he actually told flight controllers, and he rattles it off without a moment's hesitation a half-century later. "I have never lost an American in space, sure as hell aren't going to lose one now. This crew is coming home. You got to believe it. Your team must believe it. And we must make it happen." Kranz said the moviemakers came up with "Failure is not an option." Does he wish he'd said it? "No - I'm satisfied with what I said." Kranz constantly finds himself setting the record straight - "in fact, every time I speak." "I try not to plagiarize," he said with a laugh. He did borrow the phrase for the title of his 2000 autobiography. Director Ron Howard's film starring Ed Harris as Kranz and Tom Hanks as mission commander Jim Lovell was based on Lovell's 1994 autobiography, "Lost Moon." Actors Bill Paxton and Kevin Bacon portrayed Apollo 13 astronauts Fred Haise and Jack Swigert. ___ The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Department of Science Education.
