Not related to this site. But I know that we all would like to pray for the families of the Space Shuttle Challenger. GOD BLESS THEM ALL, AND GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Wow to blow it on that one, shame on me. Forgive me. I of course meant the Space Shuttle Columbia. Been watching it all morning. Terrible shame. Sad way to start the day.
I was working in a nursing home in 1986 and had taken one of my patients to the TV room to watch the Challenger. We saw it live when it exploded. He just said take me back to my room please...........now I re-live those memories.
Take care. and God Bless.

I was in second grade when we heard over the intercom the terrible news. I suppose I didn't really understand it then, being 7 and all...

God bless America.

Holy Cow, I had no idea that another one blew up today. I thought it was the anniversary you were talking about. I suppose that explains the half-mast flag I saw today in Boise. Terrible loss...

I would also like to add my prayers to families and friends of each of the astronauts and to all involved there at NASA . . .

When I saw it on the news at my Mum's house yesterday I thought it the Challenger anniversary, not a new one. Thoughts and prayers go to everyone.
