Apollo 13 directed by Ron Howard is the story of the real space mission that took place in 1969. The three astronauts had always dreamed of landing on the moon but not long after the astronauts launched into space did they realize that the task would be near impossible due to an explosion of an oxygen tank.

Today I’m thankful for my brother Trevor. Hard working‚ outgoing‚ funny‚ and simple are 4 words that describe him perfectly. No matter what he’s doing he puts his full effort into whatever it is. If it was a sport he wanted to be better at‚ he would spend hours working on it in his own time. If it was a project he needed done for school‚ he would put it before anything else. If it was a few extra hours of studying to get a good grade‚ he would do it. But most of all‚ any time anything needs done

piece was written. Many forms of art preserve the story of what happened during that time depicted in the works almost like a time capsule. Dudley Randall’s “Ballad of Birmingham” and Langston Hughes’ “Theme for English B” are two great examples of poems that show how art work can be preserved over a long-time period. Dudley Randall’s “Ballad of Birmingham” captures the moment when a group of white supremist bombed a church killing four little girls because of tension between races during that time
