I was 33 years old, on a business trip to NYC from Philly, and remember getting on the train late in the PM and opening a newspaper with a special edition, front page photo and all. It was a very cold day, and I remembered all the temperature delays that had put the launch off a couple of times. I remember thinking very clearly, "I knew it was too damn cold to launch that thing..." Little did I know how Feynman would later be able to expose the whole thing.
