Five years ago today we were anxiously awaiting the return of Shuttle Columbia from it's successful 16 day mission. STS-107 ended 16 minutes too soon as families, friends, and nasa employees were waiting at the SLF on that clear Saturday morning. Now five years later we still remember them and we keep the families in our prayers. Not far from the SLF on Launch pad 39-A Space Shutle Atlantis stands poised for launch on STS-122 ready to continue the legacy of Columbia and her crew. Rick, Willie, Dave Mike, Laurel, Kalpana, Ilan Thank you for serving your country and helping our country to explore the unknown. Columbia and her crew are missed.

I was 8 at the time and I was sitting at home watching as it happened.

Columbia was my favorite shuttle.
Rest In Peace Columbia and her crew.

We are at the 6 Year mark of the STS-107 Launch.
Let them rest in peace.

I was only 10 going on 11 when I was watching central florida news 13 watching it disintegrating before my very eyes!

That will always be in my mind, for years until my death.

But at least we know that NASA won't make the same mistake again.

rest in peace Columbia

speed on Columbia, speed on

... I'm a pilot, I almost live for flight with a deep and huge passion for STS spaceflight (and NASA paste manned missions in general) ... and that day ... what a coincidence ... is my birthday ...

Anyway, I'll never forget that day, STS 107 and the crew most of all.

Good speed Columbia, STS-107 and it's crew!

" Columbia, Houston, UHF Comm check...." rings in my head just like "Challenger, Go at throttle up...."

Godspeed to all lost crews as we remember them once again.
