For all those who can capture the Flemish Belgian TV channel Canvas: Tonight at 0.20 h, there will be a documentary about the Challenger accident. "Challenger - Go for launch", unfortunately my TV paper doesn't tell me who made this documentary.

All the best,

Kirsten

On Channel 4. 2nd.Feb.06 showing 9.0pm that evening is this-
Challenger-Countdown to Disaster.
One -off Documentary Drama.Showing the Explosion in 1986.[To quote from Whats on Tv}Paper Shows how Challeger and its crew were doomed before they left the launch pad.
Using a mix of drama and eye witness accounts,despite warnings from engineers who wanted to stop the launch-the tragedy still happened.The story starts 2 years before launch and goes all the way through to the point of the disaster.
Directed by Stuart Everett.Talks about the fault with the rocket boosters.also looks at the story of Christa- plus what NASA had to say about all this.
I am only posting this info- for you members,if you care to watch this? for me-
its TOO SAD. Thought this info would be helpful-for those who didnt know already.
