WHAT!!!!
I am in Dallas...well Denton right above it. Let me turn on the tv.
Oh I greatly remember the challenger. I was in third grade, and we
were on our way to P.E. (physical education) and I saw the teachers
crying.
The news says there is reports of debree on roofs, but no one seems to
be hurt right now. If I hear more around here, I will post more.
They are showing a trail of debree across Henderson county, Palenstine
county, and Rusk county. The debree is still coming down, so they are
warning people to look up while they are out. They are worried about
aircraft flying right now in the debree field. They say it is
drifting to the east. Really, the debree is more over east Texas than
the DFW area.
Eye witness videos are being shown. They say it was loud, but I heard
nothing up here.
Wow. Those poor astronauts and their families.
