swampyacres1, I agree. Not incidents that can easily be forgotten!! I remember each of those you mentioned very well, although I was just a kid when JFK died.

Anne, I was at work when a customer came in and I asked how the launch went, he said it exploded, I told him that’s terrible why would you say that and he told me it was true, I was heartbroken 💔

Can't remember if We watched it live, or the news-cast after. But, I do know I saw it on TV in my 6th grade classroom that day. We had all 3 of our 6th grade classrooms together at the time. It was intense, to say the least.

I watched it live in my school library… there was immediate shock… no one knew what to say and the teacher turned off the TV.

Player #103085923, even though they knew the o-rings had never been tested at that lower temperature and were not certified for that, they went ahead with the mission anyway.
