Tom Hanks ehrt den Astronaut Jim Lovell, den er in ‚Apollo 13‘ porträtierte: ‚Gott beschleunigt dich auf dieser nächsten Reise‘

>“There are people who dare, who dream, and who lead others to the place we would not go on our own. Jim Lovell, who for a long while had gone farther into space and for longer than any other person of our planet, was that kind of guy,” Hanks wrote in a tribute shared on his social media platforms. “His many voyages around Earth and on to so-very-close to the moon were not made for riches or celebrity, but because such challenges as those are what fuels the course of being alive — and who better than Jim Lovell to make those voyages.”

>“On this night of a full Moon, he passes on — to the heavens, to the cosmos, to the stars. God speed you, on this next voyage, Jim Lovell,” the statement finishes.
