I remember the day the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded 74 some seconds after lift off-I was one of those Space geeks(Still am) that followed the historic mission. After the disaster, I thought I I knew everything there was to know about the mission and the accident. But what I didn't know was the story of a soccer ball that was aboard the shuttle that fateful day. The story begins from the local elementary school that was close to the Kennedy Space Center where the Space Shuttles were launched. I hope you find this just as fascinating as I did. Thanks for viewing! Boxer
