Challenger: April 4, 1983 - January 28, 1986



On this day, January 28th, 1986. NASA lost Challenger, and with it the lives of the STS-51-L crew. Media coverage of the accident was extensive and I will never forget watching it happen live while sitting in class that morning. Today Challenger is in our memories and will always reside as a testament to human determination to reach the stars.
