2003 Space shuttle diaster

**JClarke** · 10-08-2008, 12:29 AM

Do you remember this in 2003? It was 5 years ago. Did you, texans, see this incident? What was your shocking experience? I read this in the international morning newspaper and it was when I was in grade 10

omegaman · 10-08-2008, 01:43 AM

I still remember the 1986 space shuttle disaster when I in grade 6. It was a sad day.

***Calvin*** · 10-08-2008, 01:45 AM

I still remember this vividly from the 1986 Challenger explosion when I was 9 years old in classroom when it aired on TV.

R.I.P Heroes Challenger and Columbia

***Calvin*** · 10-08-2008, 01:48 AM

She would have been the first teacher in space but unfortunately the explosion of the Challenger shattered that dream

Brian · 10-08-2008, 02:09 AM

I remember about the Challenger wreck, we (the class) were watching it taking off on live and saw some of the wreck.

**JClarke** · 10-08-2008, 02:24 AM

I have just realised, it was the first day back as a new year in grade 10

I now, remember when the headmaster was mentioning this in the annoucement, it was a sad start. Damn, these days. 5 years.

Yes it was my son's 3rd birthday and he was sick with cold. Never forgot that day.

**KristinaB** · 10-08-2008, 05:24 PM

I remember both of them. I was at Kennedy Space Center in Florida for the Challenger lift-off. Very Chilling!!! I was also at the dedication for the school for Christa McAulliff. The one in 2003, I was here in Missouri and watch in horror the television.

I couldn't either. It was my birthday the day Challenger blew up and ironically, I was having lunch in Gracie at the time!

I was on the far right side of Gracies when you stand at the windows facing the food area. I remember it just like I was there yesterday. Sad.

I don't remember where I was when the Columbia broke up in the air. However, I do remember the 9-11 attacks at work and a couple things. I will never forget the shock on my guy's face when he walked in the door at the very time they replayed the second plane flying into the twin towers. He heard about it but never saw TV til that very moment. Horrible. Sorry off topic.

Back to the shuttles.....RIP astronuts in both shuttles.
