I live in Central Florida, and I remember watching the Challenger liftoff out on the ball field with the other students of my school. It was going up, up, up and then there was this loud BANG!, then what I guess were the rocket boosters separating but soon the ship was plummeting...we all watched awestruck..the kids dumb with confusion, the adults quietly sobbing at the realization that a teacher, just like them, was not coming home. Sadly, the yearbook cover that year was emblazoned with the Challenger theme, as it was too late to change it by the time of the explosion. Still a haunting moment in my life to this day.

My fourth grade teacher was one of 11,000 applicants for the NASA Teacher in Space Program. A local news station even featured our class with him teaching us as he was one of the finalists, I believe.. ultimately he wasn't selected, Christa McAuliffe was. We were doing mathematics when our science teacher announced the Challenger exploded and we ended up watching it on the news. What's sad is that some mean kids were like "if Mr Johnson (my fourth grade teacher) had been on the Challenger when it exploded, I'd be happy.

I was 11 years old on the day of the Challenger disaster. That morning my mother had taken me to Boston for a dentist appointment. We got home just in time for me to watch the launch. All us kids knew about the launch because of Christa McAuliffe from nearby New Hampshire. I remember watching thd disaster live on TV and then a bit later walking a couple of hours before school let out. What a nightmare. I didn’t understand for years later what caused the problem; NASA not listening to its engineers.

I was just an infant during the Challenger disaster, but very much adult during Columbia's....had recently given birth actually. I watched news coverage like everyone else. I don't think I've ever read or heard what they experienced during those final moments in such detail. Hearing it all has made me physically ill.
