I’ll bet it was spectacular!

We used to watch them all the time when we lived in Clearwater. Even from across the state they were great to watch.

Unfortunately I remember pulling over in traffic, as we often did to watch a launch, and saw the Challenger go up. I will never forget that sight as it split into 3 pieces. I think that actually traumatized me. Then of course it was replayed over and over.

Since then I have lost my enthusiasm for watching the launches, as amazing as they are.
