That message does not exist anymore, now its win at all cost nobody wants to come second, hence this world is worse than it's ever been I'm 52 from London UK having the worst ever time of my life seriously not in a good place.
Christa was a remarkable person, little mentioned was Christa's backup Barbara Morgan, who is often seen in the videos next to Christa and went through the same training side by side with her. 12 years after Challenger, Barbara was selected as a full time Astronaut and went through full Astronaut training. And finally 21 years after Challenger in 2007 she flew into space as a Mission Specialist and STS 118 Shuttle Endevaour.

I was born 11 years after the disaster, but looking at this footage and hearing what she had to say before the tragedy remains inspirational and a defining image of the heart and drive of America. I cried the first time I learned about this story at school years ago. We need more people like her now more than ever, especially with a troublesome, uninspired, and worrisome generation that we face now. I'm tired of hate ruling America.
Hate rules the U.K. as well. People of today are very different… it’s sad. No one wants to do inspiring or intelligent things anymore ☹️- people want to be Instagram models or reality show “stars” It’s all so very boring.
So confident, so well-spoken, so passionate, if she was a politician, I would vote for her. It wasn't just someone happy to be in space, she was passionate to try this out and to hear her wanting to go back to the class, just breaks my heart. The way she spoke about children pursuing their dreams makes me think the kids really loved her and she wasn't just celebrated by them because she taught there. As a teacher, she is my inspiration. It's the year end for my section and I am definitely be leaving my kids with these words of wisdom.
I've found this immensely moving. I came here upon learning the exceptional Michelle Williams will be playing Christa McAuliffe in a film. Christa's impact was so profound and her message so illuminating: "Dreaming is okay." I'll be holding onto those words.
Gosh ........What a thoroughly lovely human being Christa was. She was so optimistic and inspirational. I'm convinced no one will forget her, and all the other brave Astronauts who have lost their lives to help the human race evolve. Bless.xx
A long tele-meeting by phone between Nasa and Thiokol management was made in the evening of the 27 of January 1986, 12 hours before the liftoff. The problem with O-ring seal behavior at very low temperatures was definitely known and on first instance the launch was postponed by the contractor's though resistance. Then the high pressure made by Nasa HQ on them changed their minds and after a long discussion the NO became a YES. 😔
The whole crew were great people, fighting for the future of humanity in space. It makes me sad politics were the reason they all lost their lives that day. They should not have launched due to the conditions. Watch a SpaceX launch today, they postpone launches for weeks for safety.
Watching a documentary on the Challenger disaster. I was 14 years old and out of school at the time because of a snow storm that had blasted the southeast. Unusually heavy snow here in North Carolina where I live...... so no school. I was sitting in front of the TV watching this when it happened. Never forget seeing Mrs. McAuliffe's parents and the other family members expressions of horror. I couldn't imagine what they were going through. RIP to all the brave crew members of the Space Shuttle Challenger. God bless you all and your families. ✝️
It's from the poem "High Flight," by World War II pilot John Gillespie Magee, Jr. Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth, And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long delirious burning blue I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace, where never lark, or even eagle, flew; and, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of God.
What a lovely girl. A rare type. The best always seem to die. She reminds me in looks of the singer Laura Brannigan, another beautiful soul taken too early.
Man it brings tears to my eyes,this catastrophe is right up there with 9/11 in my opinion.I was 13 years old and I remember it,just like it was yesterday.RIP Group 51L
Just an amazing women with so much heart. I was only around 7 when this tragedy happened & will always remember attending School the day after this disaster where the head teacher held an assembly to remember her & the other poor souls that lost their lives. It was very sad.
Thank you for the inspiration, Christa!! I watched you reach up to the stars, and even in the face of this tragedy, you still had shown us that anything is possible!!! RIP to you, Dick, Mike, Judy, Ron, Greg, and Ellison!!!!
to anyone too young to remember this was a huge thing the teacher in space mission was going to be amazing with live broadcasts and lessons she was going to do from orbit every school in America was geared up to watch. it was horrible when it happened I remember it vividly from excitement to watch all these amazing things to sadness in an instant
In 2007, NASA sent an elementary school teacher Barbara Morgan to give some lessons from space. In 2013, another Chinese astranout Wang Yaping gave physics lessons from space.
A little known fact that has been missed in her Bios , Teacher Christa McAuliffe was a Maryland local for a time..She taught at Thomas Johnson Junior High School in the 70's... It was called Junior High then...Thomas Johnson, now called middle school , is located in Lanham, Maryland.. I walked the same hallways she did. and saw her often ..however she was never one of my teachers ...

she must have been an exeptional women having been chosen out of 10k other teachers. I keep on remembering her parents watching the launch that day and witnessing the tragedy unfolding right before there eyes. The only positive thing is she was a step closer to heaven
6:56 Back up Teacher in Space Barbara Morgan of Fresno, Cal. Even though she watched her counterpart die a death that very nearly was her own, Morgan stayed with NASA. She flew a Shuttle mission in 2007 to help build the International Space Station. That flight was delayed by the Columbia disaster. Even though Morgan did experiments later used to teach school children, NASA played down her role as a teacher, hoping not to focus attention back onto the death of Christa Mcauliffe. They designated Morgan a “NASA educator” as well as Mission Specialist who used the robotic arm to help build the ISS.
it's 35 years today, many may not know, but Ronald Reagan was right, we will never forget them. For people who weren't born until years after, like myself, the crew of Challenger, especially Christa McAuliffe, are and always will be role models. RIP Dick Scobee, Michael Smith, Judith Resnik, Ellison Onizuka, Ronald McNair, Christa McAuliffe and Gregory Jarvis.

NASA was Warned by Thiokols,the manufacturer of the solid rocket boosters that they were not designed to be used at the temperature ,that it was that morning and NASA pushed on with the Launch,very,very sad call on their part...

RIP Christa Mcauliffe I may never have been born yet in the year 1986 for five more months but I’ve already learned so very much about you in life and about you lifetime when growing up as a Child Of The Space Race and all of you’re brave and bold heroics of having learned about both outer space and the space shuttle itself and our exploration of the universe included and that I’ve Truly envied you’re Quote reach for the stars which is a symbolizing quote of how everybody will always remember you for all eternity and especially me and in honor of both you and you’re challenger crew I’ve come to enjoy the Star Trek IV Film “The Voyage Home” Made later on in 1986 that’s been dedicated to you’re legacy which is said at the very start of that film 😭😭😭😭😭😭
He visto este video homenaje a esa profesora, y digo que injusto que no pudo viajar al espacio. Miren su entusiasmo, su sonrisa, emocionada hasta las lagrimas. Quiza si hubiesen viajado el 22/01/86 como estaba planificado a lo mejor hubiese sido una exitosa mision y mac lauffe era la primer civil en la historia en llegar al espacio. Para la NASA por mas exitosas misiones espaciales que tengan de ahora en mas, quedaran traumados para siempre con esta tragedia.

Nice tribute but some things are slightly wrong. 1:48 for example "The Challenger exploded", no.. it didn't explode. One of the SRB's broke the mounting point (due to o-ring failure and a jet of flame burning into the external fuel tank) and the SRB pivoted and broke away piercing the external fuel tank which caused a flash ignition of the contents but that did not "explode" the orbiter, it was the aerodynamic forces that broke the orbiter up into pieces. (the crew cabin survived the break up mostly intact and sadly the crew had to wait over 2 mins for the crew cabit to fall and slam into the ocean before they died. poor poor people, it must have been horrific)
Thank u for posting this about my cousin i am so proud of her i promise i am not lieing about this my cousin is christa macculaffe if u dont beleieve go on first coast.news and look up christa
+Giana Carlascio I knew her when I was teenager . A little known fact that has been missed in her Bios , Teacher Christa McAuliffe was a Maryland local for a timel..She taught at Thomas Johnson Junior High School in the 70's... It was called Junior High then...Thomas Johnson, now called middle school , is located in Lanham, Maryland.. I walked the same hallways she did. and saw her often
+John Bravo Her first teaching job, I think, right? I read Bob Hohler's book a few times when I was a kid and he talked a lot about her teaching at TJJH and how much impact she apparently had when she was there. I was five when she died, but I'd have loved to have had just a quick conversation with her.
+Justin Martin Mr Martin , ..I had read a few Bio's that were incomplete so I started posting that she had worked at TJ ...It appears some of those Bios that had missed the information have now updated and seem more complete .. I just read a story where a young man was born at around 3 am on the 28 when she passed. This young man goes to Arlington National Cemetery on or around his Birthday to visit the Memorial in section 46 for the last 30 years because this had such an impact on him growing up ..You can go to Google Earth and go to the ON ground view and move to the memorial and walk up to it and see both the Columbia and Challenger Memorials ... Here is an excerpt from a Bio I found : "She obtained her first teaching position in 1970, as an American history teacher at Benjamin Foulois Junior High School in Morningside, Maryland. From 1971 to 1978, she taught history and civics at Thomas Johnson Middle School in Lanham, Maryland. In addition to teaching, she completed a Master of Arts in education supervision and administration from Bowie State University in Maryland. In 1978, she moved to Concord, New Hampshire, when Steven accepted a job as an assistant to the New Hampshire Attorney General. McAuliffe taught 7th and 8th grade American history and English in Concord, NH and 9th grade English in Bow, NH before taking a teaching post at Concord High School in 1983."........................... I hope this answers your question ...
What better lesson could the schoolchildren have wished for, than the failure of a major engineering project because project managers ignored engineers?
Crazy thing is 1 or 2 of them had gone up in Jan 85, believe it was.54 degrees and they had problems with Challenger in that weather. One said it was them who nearly met their fate but it would be a year later in freezing temps that this magnificent 7 would surely meet theirs. Media calling NASA comically errant and public expressing their dissatisfaction with aborts IMO played a role in pushing the launch. Judy had to of had reservations, she was as brilliant an engineer as they come. Semper Fidelis

Thiokol was in their last year of it's contract with NASA to provide the solid rocket boosters. So their decision was a business decision not a safety decision with the engineers best recommendation.
am i the only one , looking at C.M pictures and feeling that something strange here , being so intelligent , working long years to built a career and a beautiful family ....to finish in seconds , in a explosion !! and that's all :(....
Unfortunately there isn't anything strange. These things just happen. She could have continued on and gad a longer life had they stopped the launch and gone another day. And probably be alive to this day. If there is reason it's not apparent anyway. I don't really believe in fate or destiny but you never know.

I did a passed life regression hypnosis and I saw myself having really curly short hair and in a space suit. I saw myself inside the shuttle. I did not see how I passed but I know I passed in the shuttle. I also saw her singing happy birthday to a lil boy with her family it was very weird. I searched up female astronaut passing and she popped up. Could it be ? Crazy 🤯

The Challenger accident was a case of Murphy’s law straight up bitch-slapping the entire country. RIP to those 7 astronaunts…Lord only knows the hell they went through as the crew cabin plunged toward the ocean. I was happy to see KISS continue as a band despite the death of Judy “Paul Stanley” Resnik, but man, what a loss.
I was thinking that I might mention a possibility That Christa mcauliffe’s students at concord high school were on the cheer team on the 40th anniversary of the Challenger disaster.
We are the filmmakers of Christa McAuliffe: Reach for the Stars - to get a DVD AND support education. Go to the website - INDIEGOGO and type in Space Shuttle Field Trips Thanks!
why? because she volunteered? That does not make you amazing. She took a huge risk and did not take her kids into account. She lost her life and her kids grew up without a mother. why is she amazing?
Anything worthwhile in life has some degree of risk attached. You can be in an accident on the way to work or someone can run up into workplace and start shooting. The only way to live a life without risk is to never leave the house, but that’s not very fulfilling
You would think that if they were going to have a private citizen go with them to space they would be more careful ,but unfortunately this was a rushed launch.
I love her message to kids: "...if it's something you really want to do. And not to be afraid of failure." What a wonderful person she was.
That message does not exist anymore, now its win at all cost nobody wants to come second, hence this world is worse than it's ever been I'm 52 from London UK having the worst ever time of my life seriously not in a good place.

They really should make a good quality film regarding her story. I think it deserves more recognition.
Beautiful, Intelligent, Funny, Charismatic, Kind and Brave. Sadly missed. RIP Christa.
yes
Yes
😢 Wspaniali ludzie. Zawsze będą w naszej pamięci i sercach
With her mother passing this last November, maybe now both parents and Christa will at last find their peace.
Yes, her mother left in November 2018. If it was the Mcaullife family
Did they believe in God?

She was for sure
Always wish I could go back in time and show them what happened so they wouldn't get on board that day.
I hear you!! If only we could do that.

The problem with that would be that erasing the death would remove your motive for going back in time and erasing the death, causing a paradox

I was five when she died, but I'd have loved to have had just a quick conversation with her.
+Justin Martin Mr Martin , ..I had read a few Bio's that were incomplete so I started posting that she had worked at TJ ...It appears some of those Bios that had missed the information have now updated and seem more complete .. I just read a story where a young man was born at around 3 am on the 28 when she passed. This young man goes to Arlington National Cemetery on or around his Birthday to visit the Memorial in section 46 for the last 30 years because this had such an impact on him growing up ..You can go to Google Earth and go to the ON ground view and move to the memorial and walk up to it and see both the Columbia and Challenger Memorials ...
Here is an excerpt from a Bio I found : "She obtained her first teaching position in 1970, as an American history teacher at Benjamin Foulois Junior High School in Morningside, Maryland. From 1971 to 1978, she taught history and civics at Thomas Johnson Middle School in Lanham, Maryland. In addition to teaching, she completed a Master of Arts in education supervision and administration from Bowie State University in Maryland. In 1978, she moved to Concord, New Hampshire, when Steven accepted a job as an assistant to the New Hampshire Attorney General. McAuliffe taught 7th and 8th grade American history and English in Concord, NH and 9th grade English in Bow, NH before taking a teaching post at Concord High School in 1983."........................... I hope this answers your question ...
am over it but as a 9 year old. Was hard to not think of her after the disaster.
Rest In Peace beautiful Christa ! ❤️😇🙌🏻
Christa would have been a perfect Secretary of Education
What better lesson could the schoolchildren have wished for, than the failure of a major engineering project because project managers ignored engineers?
Hansen Peter why listen to rocket scientists what do they know?
Crazy thing is 1 or 2 of them had gone up in Jan 85, believe it was.54 degrees and they had problems with Challenger in that weather. One said it was them who nearly met their fate but it would be a year later in freezing temps that this magnificent 7 would surely meet theirs. Media calling NASA comically errant and public expressing their dissatisfaction with aborts IMO played a role in pushing the launch. Judy had to of had reservations, she was as brilliant an engineer as they come.
Semper Fidelis
Her legacy to us is to wake up everyday and believe yourself even if nothing right
6:20 what's she held ? a cellphone ?
It is criminal what happened to her and the 6 other astronauts. NASA - listen to your engineers
No I don't regretfully. These two about Mrs.McAuliffe are the only two about her I have. Thank you for watching!
"When that shuttle goes, there might be one body......... but, there's 10 souls I'm taking with me...."
In the words of Christa McAuliffe follow your instincts and go for your dreams
RIP Christa❤
A long tele-meeting by phone between Nasa and Thiokol management was made in the evening of the 27 of January 1986, 12 hours before the liftoff. The problem with O-ring seal behavior at very low temperatures was definitely known and on first instance the launch was postponed by the contractor's though resistance. Then the high pressure made by Nasa HQ on them changed their minds and after a long discussion the NO became a YES. 😔
Thiokol was in their last year of it's contract with NASA to provide the solid rocket boosters. So their decision was a business decision not a safety decision with the engineers best recommendation.
"and I feel the teacher in space program would lose an awful a lot if the teacher didn't return to the classroom,"
am i the only one , looking at C.M pictures and feeling that something strange here , being so intelligent , working long years to built a career and a beautiful family ....to finish in seconds , in a explosion !! and that's all :(....
Unfortunately there isn't anything strange. These things just happen. She could have continued on and gad a longer life had they stopped the launch and gone another day. And probably be alive to this day.
If there is reason it's not apparent anyway. I don't really believe in fate or destiny but you never know.
Christa was from Concord new Hampshire was the first teacher ever gone in Space in 1986 in fact were one of 5 Children
so sad i go to christa Mcauliffe elemantry school
+MLGmuslim Z I knew her when I was teenager . A little known fact that has been missed in her Bios , Teacher Christa McAuliffe was a Maryland local for a timel..She taught at Thomas Johnson Junior High School in the 70's... It was called Junior High then...Thomas Johnson, now called middle school , is located in Lanham, Maryland.. I walked the same hallways she did. and saw her often
i went to that school I'm in 6th grde now
I watched that school being built and latter went to TJ...I am old....
Imagine how her backup felt
Barbara Morgan went on to become an astronaut.
@@thefrase7884 Jesus some people have no fear. She saw her friends blows up but still wanted to go into space. Wow
Thanks for uploading! Do you have access to Christa McAuliffe - Reach for the Stars documentary?
Beautiful Person
I did a passed life regression hypnosis and I saw myself having really curly short hair and in a space suit. I saw myself inside the shuttle. I did not see how I passed but I know I passed in the shuttle. I also saw her singing happy birthday to a lil boy with her family it was very weird. I searched up female astronaut passing and she popped up. Could it be ? Crazy 🤯
I believe in reincarnation.. I hope Christa has a second chance at life.
The older I get, the more heartbreaking it it is. She was an adult to me when it happened. Now at 50 years old, she was far to young to die.
Geogre w. bush is my grandpa somewhere in the family and he meet her and now i go to that school
If you are a president's grandchild, I'd like to think that you could spell correctly!
Sorry, but it is the truth! God bless!!!
até hoje estas cenas do challenger mesmo em 2021 chocam...como que puderam deixar o ônibus levantar e matar a christa?covardia com a mãe dela...
Tak nas od lat oszukują , ta załoga żyje , chyba jedna osoba z tej załogi już nie żyje przecież minęło 36 lat , ten prom wystartował pusty , to było widowisko dla ludzi tak jak wszelkie loty na Księżyc , które nigdy nie odbyły się , Stanley Kubrick nakręcił film w studio o lądowaniu na Księżycu , wszystko jest dostępne w Internecie , tak oszukują ludzi
Is that Andreas Vollenweider music in the background?
The Challenger accident was a case of Murphy’s law straight up bitch-slapping the entire country. RIP to those 7 astronaunts…Lord only knows the hell they went through as the crew cabin plunged toward the ocean. I was happy to see KISS continue as a band despite the death of Judy “Paul Stanley” Resnik, but man, what a loss.
How are her family today, husband and two children?
And, students?
💔🙏💗
That one kid near the end is totally creeping me out man
I was thinking that I might mention a possibility That Christa mcauliffe’s students at concord high school were on the cheer team on the 40th anniversary of the Challenger disaster.
Those seven astronauts were doomed as soon as they got into that space shuttle 🚀💥💀
We are the filmmakers of Christa McAuliffe: Reach for the Stars - to get a DVD AND support education. Go to the website -
INDIEGOGO and type in Space Shuttle Field Trips
Thanks!
The Space Age became the Internet Age so Christa’s conviction about needing to get children ready for space didn’t really come true.
At least she died touching the starts and did not had to see how kids would become obsessed with screens.
She was SEEEEEW amazing*
lol
why? because she volunteered? That does not make you amazing. She took a huge risk and did not take her kids into account. She lost her life and her kids grew up without a mother. why is she amazing?
Anything worthwhile in life has some degree of risk attached. You can be in an accident on the way to work or someone can run up into workplace and start shooting. The only way to live a life without risk is to never leave the house, but that’s not very fulfilling
So sad 😢😢😢
Anyone knows about christa Mcauliffe middle school (is187)???
Star in the sky
Anyone recognize the narrator's voice? It's Burgess Meredith(Mickey) from Rocky and The dad in Grumpy Old Men
Also penguin from Batman
Yay Christa McAuliffe
Christa McAuliffe would've turned 73 in 2021.
Wow. She was 37.
Przecież ona żyje i ma się dobrze , Challenger wystartował pusty , materiały dostępne w Internecie
@@ewamaj7916 that is not the actually.
In was 2months old
You would think that if they were going to have a private citizen go with them to space they would be more careful ,but unfortunately this was a rushed launch.
she never got to look out the window …
All Gave Some, SOME GAVE ALL. What a disaster this was on so many levels!!
Was Burgess Meredith not The Joker in the original Batman series.
Ahh I think he was The Penguin.
I Think about her children she left behind!!
