Space Shuttle Challenger (NASA Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-099) was NASA's second Space Shuttle orbiter to be put into service, after Columbia. Its maiden voyage was on April 4, 1983, and it made eight further round trips to low earth orbit before breaking up 73 seconds into the launch of its tenth mission, on January 28, 1986 killing all 7 crew members.

This is probably my favorite historical even. Those passengers were so brave :)

But her last. A moment of silence for the lost crew. *Places hand over heart* Never forget the Challenger.

Good. She was a great shuttle. I'm just sorry my father had to see her fall like that. My grandfather worked on the shuttle back when she was still new.

Thanks. We had a connection to that Shuttle more than most people would today.

We had no real connection with the STS-25, but the STS-107 we did. They both were devistating.
