The Challenger Disaster. On January 28, 1986 the space shuttle Challenger exploded shortly after take-off and killed seven astronauts. It was the 25th shuttle launch since NASA started service in 1981. For the first time a teacher was a member of the crew. Christa McAuliffe had won a contest against thousands of other teachers.
A string of successful missions was broken in 1986 when Challenger disintegrated seconds after liftoff, killing its seven-person crew. The space shuttle program was suspended in the wake of the accident, and no shuttles were launched for nearly three years.
