The IT crowd was hilarious.. But anyways;

I watched the Challenger, that teacher won the competition and then died. All ehr pupils watched it happen, and all her family and the other astronauts family's were watching ;[

They let the rocket take off in absolutely freezing weather which caused the explosion so they wouldn't embarress themselves because they already put the launch back a few days. How sick is that, they'd rather keep their reputation then peoples lives. It could of been alot more disatrous, it could of exploded nearer to ground and killed people on the floor.

I like the way it shown you how it exploded, and it said the crew members were still alive or unconsious when the rocket eploded and they were still in a small part but died whilst in it!

NASA have had more embarresment from people finding out then they had if they put it back one more day to save their lives. Typical governments.
