Like many school children on January 28th, 1986 I was sitting in a classroom watching the Challenger Shuttle as it started its journey into space. Sadly it was not to be a happy ending. Even now, twenty-five years later I can remember that moment like it was yesterday.
Dave & John Xandegar, that father and son model building team, have created a tribute to the seven astronauts that lost their lives that day.
Great job Dave and John for sharing this with us.

This is a touching display. The tragedy happened on my 15th. birthday, so
I have a rather personal connection to the event. So thank you for making this in one of my favorite mediums.
