I was a senior in high school, sitting in Electronics class.
I even remember the exact moment the kid walking in from Metal shop and he told us the news |

Title fixt.
I was 5 in '86. I have a vague recollection of watching with my dad but obviously didn't really know what was going on. I remember Columbia like it was yesterday. Was in college for that one. |

I was on the radio in Ventura, California doing my morning show. I had to read the copy off the AP news wire. That was easy

I was Student Naval Pilot at NAS Whiting Field, Milton Florida. I had just completed a training flight and was walking back to my room at the BOQ. I passed a fellow SNP who told me of the news.

I was in the break room with a small group of employees watching the launch.
When Challenger exploded, everyone gasp, then a dead silence filled the room as everyone stared at the TV in disbelief and sadness. It was one of the most shocking moments I've ever experienced. |

I was 24 and pouring ceramic molds in my parents stand alone garage when I heard it on the radio. Went into the house and couldn't believe my eyes.
