21 years ago this morning at 9 AM EST, Space Shuttle orbiter Columbia and its crew failed to arrive at the Shuttle Landing Facility.

This is WESH-TV Channel 2 Orlando's live coverage of the landing. I recently found the video in two sections with the frame ratio distorted. I managed to put them together and correct the distortion.

I've heard stories about what happened at the SLF that morning. Now we can see this moment in history.

@WordsmithFL husband was supposed to attend a big vendor meeting at KSC that week. Son and I had made plans to fly out and meet him. We still traveled, went to KSC--one of the saddest trips I've made there.

@joycereynoldsward I can't imagine what it would be like around here -- and I never want to find out.
