  1. Don’t think the “honorable or in this case dishonorable mentions” was right
    all these people were honourable, how they died was honourable. the pursuit
    of space is a honourable mission!

  2. I was born on the day the Challenger exploded. AKA the day I’m writing
    this. It occurred right when I was born.

  3. there is a bit of false information in this video, both NASA and the crew
    of STS-107, were aware of the breach in the underside but NASA had informed
    the crew that re-entry was still safe.

  4. I remember back around summer of 2015, that I was about to go to the space
    center in Florida, and my family decided not to go because we heard a
    rocket exploded there.
