I think Sally Ride is one of the greatest heroes because she was able to show NASA that an American woman can travel to space. Sally Ride is a great hero because she inspires young kids to go to space when they are older. She devoted her life to help others‚ which lead to more women going to space and kids wanting to go to space when they are adults. In my opinion‚ I think she is one of the nation’s greatest heroes because she made an impact on the country that changed everybody’s lives.

This quote clearly shows that he was living in a parallel world between the war that he was living at that moment and his obsessed love
