NASA's Challenger Disaster, 25 Years Later. The Rev Theory...



Greetings infidels, pagans and people of the 275 religious denominations in America which would make Jesus roll over in His grave had he not risen.

It's been 25 years since NASA's Challenger debacle and since Darth posted a quick tidbit about it on another let's say "more popular" and "more happy (said in a sarcastic tone)" website, the Rev thought he'd restart the conversation on what may have happened that day of 28 January 1986.  Call it a REVrospective if you will. Don't worry, this will be short and sweet.  The following is the Wikipedia description of what happened that day to the astronauts and the teacher Mrs. Christa McAuliffe on board:

"Disintegration of the entire vehicle began after an O-ring seal in its right solid rocket booster (SRB) failed at liftoff. The O-ring failure caused a breach in the SRB joint it sealed, allowing pressurized hot gas from within the solid rocket motor to reach the outside and impinge upon the adjacent SRB attachment hardware and external fuel tank. This led to the separation of the right-hand SRB's aft attachment and the structural failure of the external tank. Aerodynamic forces promptly broke up the orbiter." What?  How about, "It exploded into pieces!"  Why does everyone have to try and sound so smart all the time!!!  Anyway...



Now for The Rev Theory, and no I'm not talking about the rock band minions:

I don't think this is what happened at all. After all, how can anybody know what happened to the Challenger when it was blown to bits and landed in the Atlantic Ocean only to be found in bits and pieces at the bottom of Davey Jones Locker?  I think Christa McAuliffe was the first American shoe bomber. Richard Reid's mother from another mother if you will. Now you say, "Rev, what motive would she have had?"  And I say to you, "TANG" biatches!!! Yes Tang...have you ever tasted that vile nectar of the devil?  That crap tasted like hell. For those of you that are too young to remember Tang, see Sunny D.  In 1986, we just didn't have terrorism on our minds in the homeland.  I don't think it was a coincidence that the only time we had an "outsider" on a NASA flight, it blew into friggin bits 73 seconds into flight. I mean look into her eyes...kinda scary huh?  I think she snapped when she found out Tang on the shuttle was not an urban myth.  Also, think about it, it was the ultimate stage for a terror attack. 85 percent of America was either watching or heard about the "fireworks" within one minute of it happening.

You see, the Rev thinks outside the box people.  I bet I have you thinking now, "wow, how many times did I myself want to blow my own house up when mom came home from the grocery store and I realized I'd be drinking friggin Tang for the next week?"  Food for thought people, food for thought.  Discuss...

I should be the head of Homeland Security.
