Though they may come from different social classes and ranks, a nation's heroes are different from the average citizen in that they tend to be driven by a singular instinct—to promote the survival and flourishing of the people that constitute the nation. In doing so, heroes relegate their personal lives and careers, their own advancement, and pleasures, to secondary importance. Sometimes this quality may express itself as reason, sometimes as pure unadulterated passion, or folly, but beneath it always is a stubborn instinct to loosen the grip of the old way of life and bring about a different form of existence.

By AP News Published Aug 30, 2023 01:08 pm A rare blue supermoon — the closest full moon of the year — dazzled stargazers Wednesday night. Saturn joined the celestial spectacle, visible alongside the moon, at least where skies were clear. It was the second full moon of August, thus the blue label. And it was unusually close to Earth, therefore a supermoon. The moon appeared to be bigger and brighter than usual, given its close proximity to Earth: just 222,043 miles (357,344 kilometers) or so.
