I took some weird little consolation that I had used the name sticker making it a model of Discovery, rather than one of Challenger.

It was a day that I chose to take a rare mental health day off from work. Seeing the zoomed in shot and thinking, "There shouldn't be flame there..." <BOOM!>

It's been a lifetime since I was sitting in the "gymnatorium", at school, watching a moon shot on TV.
