Incredible It became so routine, so commonplace, so nonchalant, it was to be iust like every other launch. No one suspected that the launch of the space shuttle Challenger would be its last. On January 28, 1986, at 7:39 a.m. at Cape Canaveral, Florida, seven crew mem- bers were killed and the 1.2 billion dollar space craft was destroyed. Although this flight was to be like all of the other shuttle launches this shuttle flight was special be- cause it carried on-board America's first average citizen in space. 37-year-old Crista McAuliffe, a high school Social Studies teacher from Concord, New Hampshire. All of the maior television networks interrupted regular programming and provided live news coverage throughout the afternoon. Videotapes of the accident were replayed again and again and burned the tragic im- ages into everyone's minds. Unfortunately, it also showed the shocked and horrified faces of family and friends of the astronauts who were watching the launch. Rescue forces were kept out of the area of the ocean under the explosion as debris rained down into the Atlantic for up to an hour.xThe shuttle ex- ploded 10.35 miles high and 8.05 miles downrange from the launch pad. President Reagan, who had planned to make his State of the Union address post- poned his speech and instead had a nation- ally televised speech. Regan commended the seven astronauts - Commander Francis Scobee, graduate from the U of A, Pilot Micheal J. Smith, Pilot Ellison Onizuka, Shut- tle Engineer Gregory Jarvis, Physicist Ronald McNair, Mission Specialist Judith Resnik, and High School teacher Crista McAliffe and offered condolences to their families. President Reagan also assured the nation that the space program would continue and there would be more shuttle flights and quoted uThe Challenger crew was pulling us into the future, and we will continue to follow them. We will continue our quest in space, there will be more volunteers, more civilians, more teachers in space. Nothing ends here! Our hopes and our iourneys continue. Although investigation into the disaster continued by a Presidential Commission, sus- picion had centered on the right solid fuel rocket booster. Evidence was beginning to support the idea that near freezing tempera- if r Space Shuttle Disaster tures at the time of the launch caused the rubber O rings, which kept hot gases and flame from escaping through the ioints where the segements of the rockets were ioined, shrunk and rendered them useless allowing flame to escape and ignite the main fuel tank which contained 526,000 gallons of liquid oxygen and hydrogen. On Friday of that same week, President and Mrs. Reagan, along with the families of the astronauts, attended a memorial service at Mission Control in Houston. NASA pilots flew the missing man formation overhead as an Air Force band played llThe Star Spangled Banner. And for one last time, we stood tog h to mourn our loss as a nation a embered the bravery and c ur that our astro- had their space- bonds of earth God.

In pirit, the NEA fund will be awarded to and practicing teachers to enable to elevate their subiect fields in new and innovative ways. A committee will estab- lish the criteria for the grants. Story By Jeff Dollar Photos By Jeff Dollar This year's brand new look in Impact represents the big changes the school has experienced. The yearbook's contents have grown to adapt to the needs of Cholla, and the 1986 editors wanted to share with you a be- hind-the-scenes look at the facts, fun, and choices of their experience of a lifetime. How do you get through it all and come out smiling? It takes teamwork, acknowledging your own uniqueness, concentration and dedication to a cause larger than yourself, and not overlooking the beauty of life, and patience with others.
