25 Years Ago Today


I was in 3rd grade. I was a member of the young astronauts program that NASA sponsored. It was a huge deal because of the teacher that was going into space.  We were coming in from recess and my teacher came to get us and blurted out "Children, there has been a terrible accident. The space shuttle Challenger has just exploded." There was a TV set up in our class when we walked in. We spent the rest of the day watching the terrible explosion over and over. Sadness. Where were you?
