Remembering the Challenger

Post by ACluvR »

21 years ago today the Challenger failed to lift off from Kennedy Space Center and killed all those aboard... Just wanted to post something to remember them.

A successful lift-off is only 2.5 centimetres off the pad... so, in fact, they did succeed in that part of the mission. Sadly though, it was the only successful part of their mission.
