Tribute to Apollo, Challenger, Columbia: NASA Day of Remembrance

NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Fla., will pay tribute to the crews of Apollo 1 and space shuttles Challenger and Columbia, as well as other NASA colleagues, during the agency's Day of Remembrance observance on Friday, Jan. 29.

Media and the general public are invited to a wreath-laying at 11 a.m. EST at the Space Mirror Memorial at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

The Astronauts Memorial Foundation, a private, not-for-profit organization, built and maintains the Space Mirror Memorial. It was dedicated in 1991 to honor all astronauts who lost their lives on missions or during training and since has been designated a National Memorial by Congress.

Images of the service will be available in Kennedy's Media Gallery

Video of the service will air on NASA Television's Video File segment.

So, these astronauts that aren't remembered... are remembered. Thanks for this upload KJK. I'm going to rip it and put it to some different music if that is OK.
