The television news couldn't possibly be kidding about the detonation of
space shuttle Challenger and loss of all 7 aboard ... could they?

One solid fueled engine clearly flew on by itself. They filmed that.
Two contrails extended from the fireball. Did both boosters fly on?

What in the main fuel tank could burn white? Hydrogen burns blue. Did
the camara saturate with the brightness?

Does anybody on the .net have more information than network television?
