It was a terrible tragedy, for the families and friends of the victims, for humanity, and for the space program.
I was too young to remember the Challenger explosion, but I've heard enough about it. It took two years and a few months before NASA was in space again.
This time I think it won't take that long, though. NASA already had plans for the shuttle's replacement, and the shuttle is 22 years old.
President Bush just spoke and said that the space program will continue. And it will.
This event falls at the worst possible time though, for both our nation and the space program.
