Outnback 101 Posted May 31, 2020 I heard "part of the wiring for the guidance system" they got from "jeepwm69". Came out of an old Foreman he's been storing for several years. 😨 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember as a grade school kid back in the 60's getting up early to watch some of the launches. The TV was mostly snow, but you could hear the announcer. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LedFTed 1,135 Posted May 31, 2020 glad the launch went off without problems. seen a few from Ocala Florida. it was about 60mls away. mostly early morning. i was walking a horse in the barn when the challenger blew up, just seen a jagged smoke trail in the sky. from Ocala, all you could see was the flame of the rocket engines. bought time they brought it back home. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
