In 1952, a young John Jurgensen said he wanted to build a rocket with his dad and travel to Mars or Venus. He wrote to Einstein asking if the physicist would like to come along for the ride. Jurgensen followed up on his childhood dream, ended up working for NASA and, in 1969, he helped the Apollo 11 mission land on the moon: https://tinyurl.com/29ew4leq
