@easterniowegin I was driving to the airport in Houston when the launch of Challenger that morning was announced. There had been some concern about the cold temperatures in Florida. When the radio broadcast was interrupted to carry the launch live, I had a horrible premonition of what was about to happen. Suddenly I knew with absolute certainty that Challenger was going to explode. My face went white and my hands started to shake. I have not had a premonition like that before or since. I listened in horror as it cleared the tower and exploded in the air. There was nothing I could do.
