This Return to Space Film Quiz supports Grades 7–12 with evidence-based questions that track how U.S. crew launch capability returns after the shuttle era, why reusability matters for cost and access, and how checklists make docking and splashdown safe.

Film Summary

From shuttle retirement through SpaceX’s Demo-2 mission, students see how engineering iteration, procedures, and teamwork restore routine crewed launches. Use the film to compare disposable vs. reusable hardware, map risk decisions, and explain recovery-zone policy—clear practice for claim-evidence writing. (NR — 2022, ~128 min)
