It’s no secret that some of the brightest people on earth work for NASA. We all know they can build spaceships, rockets, and fancy space suits. But who knew they are to thank for a lot of the things we use in life every single day!
Some of the many products that came from NASA inventions are memory foam, freeze-dried food, smoke detectors, water filters, joysticks, cordless tools, and satellite TV.
So thank you smart people of NASA for all of these things. Amazing!

Usually when you leave an NBA game at an arena in a major city you don’t expect to suddenly see someone drowning. But that’s exactly what happened to 18-year-old Finn Carter and his Dad up in Boston last Friday.
They had just enjoyed the Celtics game at TD Garden when they saw a guy drowning in the harbor nearby. Without hesitation Finn sprung into action and ran into the water to bring him to the side of the road. By the time he got him out the paramedics had arrived.
The next day Finn woke up and took the S.A.T.’s. Hopefully he had some good karma going for that test score.
Finn’s father said he’s really proud of his son for having that natural reaction to go immediately help someone in danger.

Hopefully you got your “I Voted” sticker after you hit the polls yesterday. The tradition of giving out the stickers started back in the early 80s in Miami and Phoenix as a way to encourage people to vote while creating a sense of community. Then caught on over the years to everywhere else.
The stickers cost less than a penny each to make. Usually the local governments order and pay for them. A company called Intab, who make all different kinds of election supplies, say they sell rolls of 1,000 stickers for $7 a pop and normally sell more than 30 million per year.
And my pro tip to avoid missing out on your sticker for next election… vote early!
Anna has been wearing this coat lately, and Raven can’t get over how funny it is to him. What do you think of Anna’s coat?
Anna and Raven found there was a lot of disappointment on election day, and ironically, none of the major problems had to do with the actual candidates. Did you run into these issues too? Catch up with the podcast.
