I was in the shower when the Challenger exploded.
My father was watching the launch and told me when I got out.
I thought he was joking.
I watched the replays, unable to process what I was seeing until several hours later.

Astronaut Ron McNair was supposed to play the saxophone live from orbit.
His performance was to be the last track on Jean Michel Jarre's "Rendez Vous" album.
This is that track, with a guest saxophonist.



Space is beautiful. And dangerous.
