On January 28, 1986 i woke up super early to watch the launch of the Challenger in which my buddy Ron was on. I was very excited to see my best friend go to space! As soon as the shuttle lifted off i started crying of joy. However, those tears of joy turned into tears of sadness. The Challenger had just exploded. I was devastated. I couldn't stop crying or thinking about Ron's family. We had just lost some great people.

After my days in New York i decided to come back to Texas and work in construction. It didn't quite go as plan because i got fired 3 months later. However it wasn't the end of the world because i was offered a job in Albuquerque New Mexico. One day i went out for coffee and bumped into a guy by the name Bill Gates who asked me to invest money and knowledge into his project. That project was Microsoft, i had become co-founder of that company, and later millionaire.
After i finished high school in San Antonio i decided to attend Cornell University in New York and earn a degree in engineering. After my graduation in 1969 i decided to go to the Woodstock Rock 'n' Roll concert. It was the best day ever! At that concert i met Ronald E. McNair who later became my best friend.
My name is Davy Diaz. I was born in May 5 1945 in San Antonio, Texas. My Parents named me after an American hero, Davy Crockett. My parents were farmers and the best people in the world. I have one brother named Angel and one sister named Jazmine whom i love very much.
On January 31, 1958 i stayed up past my bedtime to see the launch of the first American satellite, Explorer 1. I was very nervous and excited to see a satellite go into outer space. On that day i learned that nothing is impossible and i will forever remember that moment.
