Do you remember where you were when the Challenger exploded?
Watching the Falcon Heavy rocket lift off today, I recalled the worst space disaster in my lifetime. I was working at a mall store in Yuma, AZ when the Challenger was launched. I walked across the mall to the Footlocker athletic shoe store to watch. It was horrifying. If you aren't old enough to remember it, you might not want to even read the comments here. It was a brutal day for the space program.

In college. I was in the lobby all by myself watching TV.

1st grade. They had brought a TV for us to watch. All three 1st grade classes filled our tiny classroom.
It was a shock to everyone. The teacher left the room. Seems she was gone quite awhile. It was apparent she was crying when she returned.
