Space Shuttle Disaster

All 7 Astronauts die, as the space shuttle Columbia breaks apart while re-entering the Earth's atmosphere.
"The catastrophe occurred 39 miles above the Earth, in the last 16 minutes of the 16-day mission as the spaceship glided in for a landing in Florida. In its horror and in its backdrop of a crystal blue sky, the day echoed one almost exactly 17 years before, when the Challenger exploded."
I remember watching the Challenger explode during my lunchtime in school. Not a good time for all.
