1997: Eleven years ago...

01/28/86 11:39am:
"Challenger, go at throttle up...."

    Early in the morning sunlight
    Soaring on the wings of dawn
    Here I'll live and die with my wings in the sky
    And I won't come down no more

    Higher than the birds I'm flying
    Crimson skies of ice and fire
    Borne on wings of steel, I have so much to feel
    And I won't come down no more

    Sail on, sail on
    I will rise each day to meet the dawn
    So high, so high
    I've climbed the mountains of the sky
    Without my wings, you know I'd surely die
    I found my freedom flying high
    I've climbed the mountains of the sky

    Floating on a cloud of amber
    Searching for the rainbow's end
    Earth so far below me; I'm here alone
    And I won't come down no more
