The Challenger Explosion: 25 Years Later

[dukemama]

I remember this day well. I was 20 years old, a junior in college and had just begun my semester of study abroad in England. I don't recall if my fellow exchange students and I watched the launch live (due to the time difference and all), but it was certainly all over the news that day and the talk of the campus. Unfortunately, some of the British students thought they were being humorous by saying "NASA = Need Another Seven Astronauts." Ugh.
