Apollo sounds bit too generic although it could work, I found Gemini and Discovery to also work.

Something that really caught my eye was "Project Constellation" meant to bring humans to the Moon again, to Mars and beyond. I thought it would be kinda fitting to bring this back as "1st Recon Unit Alpha: Constellation" so that even though it never brought man back to the moon or any new worlds in its life time, it could see a new world like it was always meant to.

This probably sounds weird, rambly and semi-sentimental but its late where I am so I'm probably being a little loopy >_<

Something along those lines sounds neat, but it would be a pain to write Constellation Actual, Constellation 2 or whatever. Seems like whatever name would actually be used would be short and sweet for less cumbersome communication. 

I do like Discovery, also did suggest Mercury which was the series of missions that NASA started trying to create their first rockets... I think if my memory of the history of space exploration isn't wrong. Anyway naming something after the first rockets feels like it fits as well.
