Remembering the Challenger Disaster. On January 28, 1986, the tenth mission of the space shuttle Challenger ended in tragic disaster. We remember the seven astronauts who lost their lives that day, including Christa McAuliffe, who was chosen by NASA to pioneer its Teacher in Space program.
Challenger explosion remembered: Look back at the News' 1986 space shuttle disaster report. Nasa handout picture dated November 1985 shows the crew of the doomed Challenger space shuttle. This report originally appeared in the Jan. 29, 1986 edition of the Daily News -- the day following the space shuttle disaster. Man's dream of conquering space died a little yesterday.
