    I watched it happen on the television in school. I was 8. Right after it happened they shut off the TV's and took us out for an impromptu assembly with the entire school. Even though you don't actually see the astronauts die, you still... see them die. And it was the first time I ever saw someone die. It definitely made an impression.

    Challenger is twice as long ago now, as the Apollo 1 tragedy was from Challenger. Hard to fathom. :-(
