From Challenger to Columbia.

[RICHARD]

Take a second today to remember the Columbia.

Where has the time gone?

I got to watch the Challenger land at Kennedy one time while I was in Florida with my parents. When she blew up on takeoff, I was sitting in the music room in HS, working on a music theory composition, when our teacher walked in and told us. Marty had never been exactly a straight shooter, and we thought he was screwing with us again, until the announcement came over the PA. It was a shock, because one of our HS Math teachers was an alternate for the flight.

When Columbia blew on re-entry, I was in a auditorium at FT Drum getting ready to give a class to a unit in mob training. When we made the announcement, it was the first time I have ever heard absolute silence in that auditorium.
