 August 26th, 1920The 19th Amendment 1 to the US Constitution takes effect giving women the right to vote. Carrie Chapman Catt is one of the leaders in the women’s suffrage 2 movement.


“Woman Suffrage is a long story of hard work and heartache, at least one thousand legal enactments 3 were necessary and everyone was a struggle against ignorant opposition 4.”
2003Investigators pinpoint 6 what cause Space Shuttle Columbia to disintegrate 7 on re-entry, damage from falling debris 8 during a launch. Scott Hubbard is a member of the Shuttle Accident Investigation 9 Board, “We concluded that the falling foam 10 impacting the leading edge of the wing was the cause of the breach 11 that ultimately led to the destruction of the orbiter”.
But investigators 5 also conclude NASA’s overconfident management and inattention to safety contributed to the loss of Columbia and its seven-person crew.
And 1974Aviator Charles A. Lindbergh, who made the first solo nonstop flight across the Atlantic Ocean dies at his home in Hawaii, he was 72.
