Omschrijving

For more than fifty years, humanity has looked up at the Moon and asked the same haunting question:

If we walked there in 1969, why haven't we gone back?

In Return to the Moon, historian and former NASA consultant Dr. Elias Mercer confronts that question head-on, unraveling the real reasons behind our long absence from the lunar surface. What he discovers is far more complex—and far more compelling—than conspiracy or neglect.

Through gripping narrative and investigative depth, the book explores:

🌑 The forgotten engineering limits that Apollo astronauts overcame with bravery and improvisation.

🌑 The political collapse that ended the lunar program long before its potential was realized.

🌑 The physical threats—radiation, dust, thermal extremes—that modern missions must now solve.

🌑 The rise of global competitors including China and India, who see the Moon not as a symbol, but as a strategic prize.

🌑 The explosive entrance of private companies, lowering costs and rewriting the rules of space exploration.

🌑 New scientific evidence that the Moon's south pole holds water, energy, and clues to the early solar system—and perhaps unexplained anomalies buried since Apollo.

As Mercer is pulled back into the inner circle of NASA's Artemis program, he realizes humanity stands at a new crossroads. The next Moon landing won't be a flag-planting spectacle—it will be the beginning of a permanent human presence on another world.

Return to the Moon blends real-world science, geopolitical momentum, and the human quest for discovery into a powerful, inspiring vision of our future among the stars.

It is not just the story of going back.

It is the story of why we must.
