Her name is Emma Kok. Look for her on the internet. She became famous when she was 15 years old or so. She signs like the angels. If you look for her interpretation of the song “Voilà ”, you’ll see that it has more reproductions that any crap issued by Donald and Elon together, by far.

If you don’t know the story of Apollo 13, you should pay attention… because it has lessons for you too. NASA did not become NASA because everything went perfectly. Quite the opposite. Rockets exploded. Calculations failed. Systems broke. People died. And every time something went wrong, they did one thing better than almost anyone else: They learned. Apollo 13 is the famous...
