“You think going to the moon is hard, try staying at home...”

. The women didn’t always welcome their new found fame and failed missions cost astronauts their lives.Barbara Cernan, whose husband, Gene, commanded the Apollo 17 mission in 1972.

But just as it had been a decade earlier, behind the smiling faces of these wholesome American heroes were the women who sacrificed and supported in far more testing ways than those smiles let on. In the face of a high risk mission and the potential of never seeing her husband again, Janet Armstrong was left trying to engage with an emotionally stunted husband. He was never one to be overly expressive. The couple had lost their two-year-old daughter to a brain tumour in 1962, the same year that Neil had joined the programme. Janet harboured anger and hurt at how removed he had been after the death of Karen, and how he’d thrown himself into his work.

Why The Beatles split: The true story behind the break-up of the biggest band everPaul McCartney’s 1970 press release was the end for the Fab Four, but it had been coming for years, and by the time Yoko Ono was answering for John Lennon in band meetings, the writing was on the wall. Mark Beaumont details the flash-points, fights, and behind-the-scenes tensions that led to the rift that never healed I’m going to have to call bs that the biggest band was, a, british, b the Beatles. Please. The level and ability of the musicians was average. Jimi Hendrix s band and ability at the guitar far overshadows the melodic hits. British music is for fairy rides. Melancholy Two British bands that fall in the top ten of all time and way ahead of the Beatles were Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones. Any of the Motown musicians and any of those voices are better than any of the guys singing in the Beatles. The blues musicians from the sixties. Better. Just everyone in the US is overall better. Go cry to prince Charles.
