Project #3 illustrate a Story

Frank Kovac | StoryCorps

      While having the option to hear many stories, I decided to chose a story that was different.  Mostly every story was related to some kind of tragic or conflict that didn't grasp my attention but one did.  It's the story about Frank Kovac who was a determined man.  Frank was determined to make something and that something was a planetarium.  At a young age Kovac and his father would get a telescope and see the stars. He worked at the local paper mill because he wasn't very good at math in order to be a astrophisician.  Then one day Kovac and a group of boy scouts went out to see some stars and noticed that the clouds were blocking their view.  Kovac was determined to build a planetarium with no knowledge of engineering.  While beginning this project his father died and he question what he was doing, which led to the finishing product.  Kovac built a planetarium in his backyard that has the largest rotating globe.  He made sure he painted every constellation correctly and made a finished product.  This is very fascinating to me because Kovac was very usual.  He doubted himself, which many people do but even though he doubted himself and his father passed he knew he had to keep going.  It's interesting how much a person can do when something so simple like looking at stars and creating  a planetarium.  Kovac proves that no matter was obstacle there is, there is a way to go!
