I still remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news. I admit I have never been able to see a launch or a touch down without praying since.

Oh, we remember it well - my younger daughter was at school. My older daughter was at my house, for her heat quit working and she came over to stay warm. She saw it from our deck. I was at work, and could not belive it when it came across the news. It as a very sad time for all. It doesn't seem like it was 25 years ago - my younger daughter has been at the Space Center for 20 years now - and that does not seem possible either.

Oh yes, I remember them every time a lauch goes up. I can't believe it's been 25 years either. Watching that explosion was horrific! Tears just flowed that day. We were watching outside at work and were just totally taken back.
