I remember. I was in fourth grade and we watched it on a box tv in school as it happened. It was a terrible moment in time
I was staying at a friend’s, my back had gone out, so I was in a sofa bed in her living room, out of town, watching tv, so I watched it happen in real time. I felt helpless & hopeless. Can’t believe it’s 35 yrs.
Wow I was in 6th grade and remember this.
Wow. A must win for Boise
I remember being in 6th grade science class. We were watching it live on tv. It was devastating. I’ll never forget.
MarthaSugalski Sad time R I P 🇺🇸
angelinabaray We'll never forget this 🙏
May the souls of crew of Shuttle Challenger RIP. NASA, Space, SpaceExploration
kellnire I was only eight years old but I vividly remember my dad coming home from work asking if we'd already heard that the Challenger exploded. Later, my mom tried to explain to me how quick it hopefully must have been. Turns out it probably wasn't quick at all. That's haunting & sad.
🙏🙏😔
I remember this when I was probably in the 3rd grade & I know they talked it but they didn't go into much detail as to why or anything.
I can’t believe it’s been 35years. I was just a child but I will never forget that day! Sad day for our country and many families!
I remember that very sad day.
My 13 year-old self watched this happen live with my classmates and teacher on a tv in our social studies class. Will never forget that day.
Saw it at the office with co workers on a television someone brought from their home. We were all excited to watch this launch. Then it happened and we were in shock the rest of the day. It was sad.
Sad anniversary. You know what else is sad? Your total failure to report on the meeting at the Trump Hotel the night before the insurrection? Where is your investigative reporting!
I was home caring for my newborn daughter and watched it live. Years later, after returning to college full time to finish my degree, I was one of the first group of Robert McNair Scholars chosen across the country. Challenger McNairScholar NeverForget
Ever since the loss of the Challenger, NASA went through extraordinary steps to make sure that something similar never happens again. President Reagan was scheduled to have State of the Union that night, but the unfortunate tragedy changed those plans.
I remember when the teacher pushed the tv into the classroom for us to watch this. I also remember the screams that followed.
billritter7 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Wow. I remember watching at school.
and ken griffin just blew up my portfolio
😔
I remember our school assembled outside to watch, then being hurried back indoors. Students were confused, but we somewhat figured out something bad had happened, because teachers were crying. I remember just sitting stunned.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
My mom was pregnant with me. She remembers it as if it were yesterday
So sad 😞, then and now
I recall listening to the live radio broadcast in the back of our family friend's Ford Aerostar and not really understanding, but feeling the gravity of the moment and crying.
I will never forget watching it while we were all watching in my bosses office at work. At first no one knew it exploded and when they announced it we were all inconsolable Devastating
Remember this as it was yesterday. Was part of the Navy recovery mission..
Wow!! I can being in elementary school and being excited because our school let us watch TV that day😭😭
Isn’t time the AZStateBar suspense James Austin Woods law license for admitting to a sexual assault? Will you please help me get a FBI/FBIPhoenix/TheJusticeDept investigation?

I remember what I was doing that day. It was a cold January morning and I was sitting in my 11th grade English class in high school and we watched on TV as the space shuttle exploded on take off. It is a day I will never forget!
I remember I was sitting in my car, in our the driveway back home, listening on the radio. Never forget
Their alive tho
Remember the teacher brought a tv to school so we could all watch. It was tramatic. She turned the television off and told us we would have to talk about what happened with our parents.
rmwebsteriii This is one of those events that everyone remembers where they were. I was in Ms Jennifer Champion’s senior Chemistry class.
The first tragedy I remember
My freshman year of high school
In school watching to this happen was fairly terrible
FoxABCMaine I remember such a sad event
I remember when this happened and guess what... We went back to school right after watching it.
I remember hurrying home from school and watching it with my friend. We just stared in silence afterwards unable to believe what just happened.
I remember this day. I know exactly what I was doing when I saw this 35 years ago.
Watched this as it happened on TV. Still hard even after all this time 😔
A once in a lifetime moment memory. Mrs Ebersole’s freshman class. Watched the news for the period instead of Latin. Always in our hearts. RIP.
I couldn’t leave the house, I cried all day. Those two plumes of smoke go with throttle up😔😔😔
I can't believe it's been 35 years.I still remember the absolute shock&sense of loss we felt as students,because we were so excited abt having McAuliffe,a teacher,going off to space.Also,being from Hawaii,we felt a profound sense of loss at losing Onizuka,1st astronaut from HI.
StephanieAbrams Remember it well
Crazy take I remember about the teacher on board... Astronauts: Teacher: What’s this button for?
A sad day. I'd met Ron McNair weeks before when my friends (his brother Carl, & wife) had a party for him in Atlanta. That morning, I was in bed w/ the flu; my medical partner covered my patients. I saw the explosion & cried all day. So painful. wsbtv ajc Challenger
I’ll never forget that day watching the launch on tv. Such a horrific tragedy. It was the damn O-Ring. Heroes, all of them.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
My boyfriend and I were down there waiting for the shuttle to take off. I remember all the cars driving with their headlights on afterwards. I remember wondering what if they were actually dying underwater and not incinerated as they had said.
I was 10 years old and remember standing outside my school watching it go up when it exploded. It's a sad day that I will never forget.
These people are actually alive, til this day. Now ask yourself why did the Gov lie to the world about this 🤔 We’ll never know...
independentob10 1.28.2021 I will never forget the Challenger explosion from 35 years ago. A very sad day for me to see it live on TV.
Never forgotten my teacher's reaction; she'd ran out of the classroom in horror; we just looked at each other as if to ask, 'What just happened here?' It wasn't until she'd returned, with tears in her eyes, that we got it; we just watched them die on live national television.
xhertx One doesn’t forget a day like that Apollo one as well
StephanieAbrams A very sad day for the Space Agency remember watching it in high school.
Junior in high school, working on some project in the school library. It was on the television they had set up. Frankly didn't know how to react what I had just seen.
I was watching in elementary school in Brooklyn, NY. We had a T.V. In the class room to watch. There was a school teacher onboard. We got sent home for a half day, after to watch at home and to be with our parents.
I remember this. ☹️

I was on the phone with RichardArmes87 and watching TV as this happened.
Such a sad day for our Country. A day that will forever be remembered. They were Amazing Individuals. Thoughts going out to their families today.
🚀🇺🇸🙏🏼
I remember this so well ! I was in 5th grade and we were all so excited watching it . Then ..tragedy . And we were asking what happened and the teacher turned off the tv so fast and never said a word to us .
May their souls continue resting in peace! 🙏
Such a tragedy.
QueenTamTam9 I REMEMBER this, I was in Mrs Cambells class
Used to televise almost all launches...till this one! Working in TV at time. Watched live, real time...it was horrific...at first you weren't sure what happened - so sad✌️😔
I remember having to go back to math class after this happened and we had all just watched it in real time. Nobody took a hot minute to let kids feel anything or ask any questions. It was just..over.
Never forget the Challenger and her crew. 🙏
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Ronnie Rayguns fault.
Probably should have called the shuttle BBQ.
I was in the US Army on guard duty in VA when it happened. I remember how cold it was and how I was glad to be inside on my break time. All on break or working inside at the time, saw it live on TV and it was horrifying
Black Lives Matter? Only if you have No Gray Matter!

Our whole class was watching it live on TV. 😢
I was in the Uni Center and stopped to watch the lift off on one of the TV display sets, suffice to say you could hear a pin drop in the normally busy building :(
