Charlie's Rants & Raves

Where were you 20 years ago when the Challenger disaster occurred? I remember where I was. 4th grad in Ms. Jackson's class. We got to watch the launch live on TV. How did I feel when it happened? I was confused. Wondering what was going on. The teacher didn't know exactly how to react. I knew that something was wrong since I had seen several other successful shuttle launches. This one was obviously different.

Everyone figured out that something bad happened as the rocket boosters continued on without the space shuttle. The TV feed went black after a minute or minute and a half after the accident.

Wow, 20 years...I'm getting old.
