Heute vor 40 Jahren, am 28. Januar 1986, ereignete sich auf tragische Weise das Space Shuttle Challenger, bei dem alle sieben Mitglieder an Bord ums Leben kamen und eine von ihnen die Lehrerin Christa McAuliffe war ❤️🕊️🙏

NASA: Need Another Seven Astronauts
NGL, I was 27 at the time, and I cried openly in the pub watching it happen.
There was just something wholly *unfair* to it.
Her black curly hair her smile will be forever on my mind. I was a young man back then, almost an old man now, but I remember this very vividly.
RIP to all those brave souls.
Watched it live from a control room at KTXH-TV in Houston with a group of parents whose kids were part of the Teacher In Space program. Still a huge watershed moment in my life and why I joined NASA a year and a half later.
