To: My Favorite Headache
I was just thinking about this song and the video to it.

This is horrible. I remember watching the Columbia's first launch that Saturday morning in 1981 and then we watched the landing in my school a couple days later. (I was in sixth grade). Viewing this on the TV brings back the awful memories of 17 years ago when the Challenger exploded.

God Bless the families and our nation.

Another Rush one that fits this as well:

Vapor Trail

Vapor Trail
Rush

Stratospheric traces of our transitory flight
Trails of condensation held
In narrow paths of white
The sun is turning black
The world is turning gray
All the stars fade from the night
The oceans drain away

Horizon to Horizon
Memory written on the wind
Fading away like an hourglass, grain by grain
Swept away like voices in a hurricane

In a vapor trail

Atmospheric phases make the transitory last
Vaporize the memories that freeze the fading past
Silence all the songbirds
Stilled by the killing frost
Forests burn to ashes
Everything is lost

Washed away like footprints in the rain

In a vapor trail
