As one of the members of the group that has been called "the future of America", even though I did not know any of the Challenger crew members, I feel anquish at the fact that their death was caused by their trying to explore my future, as well as that of the world. At the same time however, I am proud of those seven men and women, one of which is directly connected with my future by sharing my chosen profession, that of teaching, and find myself thinking more of the fact that we must carry on with the exploration of the future. We can not refuse to explore because of danger, we must instead be excited by that danger to the point of wanting to overcome all danger so that the future explorers will not have to worry with the things that we are dealing with, and can reach out to, and beyond, their sights. How can we stop it now?
