Space shuttle DISCOVERY

Today the Space shuttle DISCOVERY is being retired at the Smithsonian Museum. I watched it being flown on the back of a huge Boeing airplane and it landed in DC. What an awesome site. The thing I remember about the flights of these space shuttles, was the Space shuttle CHALLENGER. It blew up as it was taking off and all the crew died. We watched it on TV and it was so sad. Jim and I were in the car when we heard about it on the radio and I cried. Then we watched it on TV and it was so sad. They had interviewed all on board before it had taken off so you knew about the people on board. Theres a video out there to watch. Good job DISCOVERY!
