The Challenger disaster had such an impact on my life. My mother was a science teacher and applied to be the teacher in space, I can rember her filling out the forms. Then, I was the first kid in school to know. I was in the nurse's office and it was on the radio. I went back to my class, 3rd grade, and told the teacher and he called me a liar in front of the class. It is my 'remember where you were' moment from my childhood.
I hope it was quick and the no one on the ground was hurt.
