Welcome to summer! Well, it’s not actually summer until June 21, which is one month before Jeff Bezos goes for a rocket ride in space. Bezos, the founder of Amazon, is going to space in a rocket made by his company, Blue Origin. This will be the first flight of
It’s June! Remember June? We had one two years ago and it’s good to see it back again. The weather is getting warmer, the sun is shining, and this year I believe we can even go outside and breathe fresh air without a mask. Be careful if you inhale
