Photo: Roadtrippers.com In the early years of manned space travel, Launch Complex 34 at Florida's Cape Canaveral played a key role in Nasa's Apollo program – which of course led to that legendary “giant leap for mankind” when a human being first set foot on the Moon.
But not long before that history-making moment, a terrible tragedy took the lives of three astronauts on this very platform: Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee were killed in a fire in their Apollo 1 capsule on January 27th, 1967. Though the site was decommissioned the following year, it remains standing today, with a plaque honoring the astronauts' bravery... and some people claim that their spirits continue to haunt the abandoned site, suggested by several reports of strange phenomena taking place there.
According to the travel blog Roadtrippers.com, locals claim to have heard screams near the launch pad, or felt “an overall dark feeling” when exploring the area.

Detroit — A judge sentenced a member of gospel music's Winans family to nearly 14 years in prison Wednesday for an $8 million financial scam that was promoted in church pulpits.
Two of Michael Winans Jr.'s victims spoke in federal court, telling a judge that the scheme to sell Saudi Arabian oil bonds robbed some people of their life savings, caused divorces and fractured many families.
"I want to apologize to everyone. ... These were decisions that were negligent and irresponsible," said Winans, of Jessup, Md.
He said he had no "malicious intent" but acknowledged that he continued to collect money even after he learned that the bonds were bogus.
Winans attracted more than 1,000 investors in 2007 and 2008, although he didn't know them all because many were recruited by others through word of mouth. He promised 100 percent returns in two months, then used the money for personal expenses or to pay off earlier investors.
