TODAY IN HISTORY

  • On this day in 1919, British troops massacred around 400 unarmed civilians in India. Brigadier-General Reginald Dyer ordered his men to shoot into the crowd, in his own words “to punish the Indians for disobedience.” The Indian independence movement grew considerably after the Amritsar massacre.
  • On this day in 1970, an oxygen tank exploded on Apollo 13, leaving the spacecraft crippled. The emergency prompted Jack Swigert’s famous quote “Houston, we’ve had a problem”. The crew managed to return to Earth safely.

Your religion is what you do when the sermon is over. – H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
