On this day, 25 years ago, the crew of the space shuttle 'Challenger' lost their lives when the craft exploded during take-off. Of those onboard was a friend of Jarre, astronaut Ronald McNair. Both McNair and Jarre performed a track together, aptly named "Ron's Peice" with McNair on saxaphone.

The Challenger disaster brings back so many sad memories for me. When the news broke I was sitting with my sister in her room at the Sue Ryder Nursing Home, Cheltenham. She had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. She died a couple of weeks later aged just 32.
