When Challenger broke apart shortly after launch over Cape Canaveral, seven people died. The most well-known to the American public was Christa McAuliffe, a school teacher. She had won a well-publicized national search, making her something of an American Celebrity - especially among school children, many of whom watched the tragic launch from their classrooms.
Join Dawn and her guest Adam Andreasen, an artist in central Wisconsin (and her first kiss oh-my-god-oh-my-god-oh-my-god.)
