Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Most people remember where they were when John F. Kennedy was assassinated, just as they remember how they felt when humans first set foot on the moon. Elements of both reactions are present in the story of Christa McAuliffe, the energetic young schoolteacher chosen to be the first civilian to go into space-and who died with her astronaut companions in the Challenger explosion of January 28, 1986. In this straightforward memoir, McAuliffe's mother, Grace George Corrigan, makes it very clear just who and what the nation lost in the Challenger tragedy. The product of family history, notes and letters, and the commemorative efforts to honor her daughter, A Journal for Christa provides a very personal biography of a remarkable young woman.Christa McAuliffe's story is solidly American-the eldest child of a close Catholic Massachusetts family, and a dedicated Girl Scout, she came of age in the turbulent sixties and early seventies and became a schoolteacher and mother. Generous, outgoing, funny, and beloved by her many friends and students, she was little known beyond her personal circle until selected by NASA to be the first civilian sent on a space mission as the 'Teacher in Space.' Whether or not the selection was a publicity stunt, Christa McAuliffe may have proved more than NASA bargained for. Honest, direct, and outspoken, she was impatient with the stultifying ceremonies of the government bureaucracy and did not hesitate to speak out on behalf of the constituency she felt she had been selected to represent: American public schoolteachers and the children in their classrooms.…

Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. First Bison Books printing [stated]. xiv, 191, [3] pages. Illustrations. Inscribed and dated by author on fep. The author was the mother of Christa McAuliffe, who died in the space shuttle Challenger accident on January 28, 1986. Following the Challenger tragedy, for many years Grace carried on Christa's message of the importance of education, traveling throughout the country as the keynote speaker at Challenger Centers, Space Camps, and elementary and high schools - many bearing Christa's name. Christa's message was also shared through the book, A Journal for Christa, authored by Grace. The author died in November, 2018 at the age of 94. Derived from a Kirkus review: A biography of the high-school social-studies teacher who died in the Challenger space shuttle explosion, written by her mother. Corrigan remembers her daughter's preflight fears and her husband's postdisaster fury. This is an affectionate memoir in which Corrigan recalls her daughter as ``the girl next door'' who ``never sat back and just existed'' but instead became a national hero through pluck and hard work. She led an ordinary life--until she beat out 11,500 other applicants to become the Teacher in Space, and proved to be an outstanding spokeswoman for education, equally at ease with Johnny Carson and Ronald Reagan. Rigorous training ensued--and then the debacle. Corrigan winds up with postexplosion events: memorial services; tributes; establishment of the Christa McAuliffe Institute for Educational Pioneering (to promote better teaching) and the Christa McAuliffe Planetarium.
