I was home from the 2nd grade and watching the film 2010: Odyssey Two when my grandmother called to tell us to turn on the news. It was my first memory of national tragedy.

I was born in 1994, and I knew this story earlier today. I was vey sad when I read about Christa and the crew... they're in the heaven, flying to God right now... I cried when I listened to this song...

It still hurts to see that explosion. I've never quite gotten over it, I guess.

the space program has not been shut down, but the shuttle program has ended. You can read more if you read about NASA on Wikipedia or go to NASA's page.

I loved John Denver's music, and this is one my favorites that he did.

@paraguaycarol They're not all over. When the economy improves, we'll get back on track.

Can't believe the US space program and NASA are all over! A huge salute to NASA and her astronauts since the 1960s. Defined my childhood as I met the original 7.

Very well done video - kudos to you! After 25 yrs., it still gets to me. TWENTY FIVE YEARS, sigh. I'll never forget seeing this live on CNN. And kudos to John Denver for his wonderful tribute song -- we miss you ALL.

@MrNiggyPants If I thought you were any kind of educated person I would try and argue what an idiotic point you have made. But seeing as you cleary don't have a brain cell to speak of, either in your head or to carry round in a portable appliance I won't bother. You are clearly an idiot and it's shame - given your lack of respect for the dead, or indeed anyone who is prepared to take a risk for the sake of the enhancement of the human race that people died so that you could live.

@MrNiggyPants Your blasted idiot!!! She got the position because of her students. Can you imagine what they felt?? No, I guess you can't. (Bye the way, tech seatting are no where near any controle). Show's how much you know. But, who cares, you have a big mouth, and know how to use it. Kudos, to you, asshole. You must be a "progressive". How's that Hopey Changey thing working for you? Ain't doing shit for me. =Stefan=
