Was watching live video as it happened. Scary stuff.

Luckily unmanned.

When everything blows up, it is hard to spin it as a minor one.

I was quoting the NASA announcer, when the Challenger blew up...

I was just trying to be funny, since there was no loss of life.

[Max Taxable]

That brings back memories. I was watching that live on tv when it happened. My entire class was at school. It was a big thing we had planned. I can't remember what grade I was in but wow.

These things are going to happen though the more we explore space. I just hope nothing stops us. I want to have an apartment on mars with in the next 2 years or at least the moon.

Oops, that was a big bang.

I am pretty sure their insurance rate is going to go up.
