39 Years Ago, Today


The launch of Apollo 11.


If you haven't seen the HBO miniseries From The Earth To The Moon by Tom Hanks, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer and Michael Bostick, now would be an excellent time to educate yourself or to relive the experience of man travelling to the moon.


I'd also like to add that I'm very proud to have donated books to middle written by the early astronauts to local middle school libraries. The idea of travelling beyond our tiny blue marble needs to be planted inside the fertile young minds of our future. You should take the time to do the same thing at your next local book fair.


Would you rather they read about Jim Lovell or TuPac?
