            When JFK was fatally shot in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963, it was a shock to the whole world (“John F. Kennedy Assassinated”). Some people believe Lee Harvey Oswald did in fact send the shot killing JFK, but Jesse Curry, the Dallas police chief, said, "We don't have any proof that Oswald fired the rifle.  No one has been able to put him in that building with a gun in his hand" (“Top 10 JFK Assassination Quotes”).

“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” were the first words spoken by astronaut Neil Armstrong when he set foot on the moon in 1969 (Dunbar 1). But what if those words were not spoken on the moon at all? The landing on the moon was monumental in United States history; on July 16, 1969, the Apollo 11 mission, initiated by President John F. Kennedy through NASA, was launched into lunar orbit, reaching Earth’s moon just four days later (1). The landing was broadcasted heavily, and quickly became a global sensation, especially to those in other countries, as at this time, the United States was heavily involved in the Space Race. However, after such an incredible and triumphant event, many conspiracies ensued relating to the feasibility of the lunar landing. Was the moon landing faked in order for NASA to save money for further space research? Was the moon landing faked by NASA to show superiority in the space race against the Soviet Union? Let’s investigate the case of...

If it is, stop worrying…” (“Biography” 1). Amelia Earhart was faced with many difficult decisions during her career in aviation. She was faced with discrimination, journeys of uncertainty, and even potential death. Amelia Earhart had a bright future ahead of her. She was on her way to the record books of being the first woman to fly across the world. But her path to glory came to an abrupt and unexpected ending.
