I watched the Challenger explode on live TV from my school classroom. The teachers were all ecstatic about the mission because NASA was sending a teacher into space. It took a minute for us to realize what happened, even though we literally watched it explode in front of our eyes.
Years later, I was a child waiting for Columbia to land when all of the adults started acting weird…then we found out. But i didn’t quite understand at first. I remember wondering how they landed in Houston when they were planning on Florida. I was smart enough to know that that wasn’t really an option but not enough to put it together until later.
