On this day, we remember the 40th anniversary of the lives lost in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster.
We honor the seven crew members:
Francis R. “Dick” Scobee
Michael J. Smith
Ronald E. McNair
Ellison S. Onizuk
Judith A. Resnik
Christa McAuliffe
Gregory B. Jarvis
Their mission represented courage, learning, and the pursuit of knowledge. Though their lives were cut short, their impact continues to live on in classrooms, science, and the spirit of exploration.
