I was in the 7th grade I want to think when Challenger happened.   The "end of an era" comment above by MrMaddog reminded me of something interesting I found in the Astro City comic book series.   There were two timelines and the point that things split was the destruction, or saving, of the Challenger.   The comic series followed the slightly brighter, and more tech advanced world where the Challenger was saved.

I was in 2nd grade, but had the day off because my grand-uncle Joe took me to see it there. I still have the 35mm film he shot of it, just holding in the button. It looks like a flip-book.

I was six months in, working on my first game, but I do remember watching this in Germany.  Doubtful is was live over the pond.
