We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran.
Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyondโa journey that continues today. go.nasa.gov/41tbrpq

On May 2, 1968, then-Staff Sgt. Roy Benavidez heard a 12-man Special Forces team was trapped in the jungle, outnumbered 100-to-1.
He fought relentlessly for six hours, losing so much blood in the process, medics thought he died by the battle's end.
In honor of his birthday, take a moment to honor him and read his remarkable story of courage and survival.

โWe knew each otherโs next move, we trusted each other, it went right back to that bond. Youโd give up your life for the man beside you. Thatโs when boys became men.โ

Harry Stewart Jr., a decorated World War II pilot and one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen, has died. He was 100 years old.
After the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor, Stewart enlisted as soon as he turned 18. He joined what was considered an experiment to train Black pilots in Tuskegee, Alabama.
Stewart went on to fly 43 combat missions. He earned the Distinguished Flying Cross for downing three German aircraft during a single dogfight. Stewart retired as a lieutenant colonel in 1950, but later returned to the skies to give rides to aspiring young pilots.
โI did not recognize at the time the gravity of what we are facing. I just felt as though it was a duty of mine at the time. I just stood up to my duty,โ Stewart told CNN during an interview about World War II in 2024.
