A commemoration of the Challenger Disaster
My next door neighbor is the college where Christa McAuliffe earned her
teaching degree. Her death in Challenger hit this town personally. The college makes a real effort to not just remember her, but inspire kids to strive towards space. They have a special program for the 20th anniversary. From http://www.christa.org/main_page.htm: 20th Anniversary of Challenger 51-L Accident Approaches January 28, 2006 - The McAuliffe Center will recognize the 20th anniversary of the accident that claimed the lives of the Challenger 51- L crew with a week of special events. Highlights will include the premier of the new documentary film Christa McAuliffe: Reach For the Stars, the unveiling of a new Mars Rover model, and special activities for visiting classes. See schedule of events: http://www.christa.org/schedule.htm -- Kevin Willoughby lid In this country, we produce more students with university degrees in sports management than we do in engineering. - Dean Kamen |
