Think about this!
On this day in 1970..Apollo 13 launched to the Moon.
Little known fact. A man 40 miles North of Cape Canaveral was killed by rogue piece of debris from the shuttle liftoff. This man's family was generously compensated for the incident, while the gov't covered it up to keep away the bad press.
Last thing to think about.. I just made that up.
Last last thing.. if only that had been your grandfather..
