Feb. 1, 2003: Space shuttle Columbia disaster
ON THIS DAY: The space shuttle Columbia broke apart while returning to Earth, killing the seven astronauts on board.
An investigation would later determine that tiles damaged during lift-off allowed super-heated atmospheric gasses to penetrate the shuttle's wing during re-entry, causing the ship to become unstable and quickly disintegrate. The crew was not told about any risk and didn't know something was wrong until very late in re-entry.
"In the words of a flight director at NASA: It has been a bad day," ABC News' Peter Jennings said during a Feb. 1, 2003 broadcast reporting on the devastating incident.

The Flawed Design That Led To The Space Shuttle Columbia Disaster | Spark
On the 1st of February 2003, Space Shuttle Columbia punched through the earth's upper atmosphere. On board seven astronauts - unaware of the events that are about to unfold. Hot gases are filling the right-wing cavity and melt the aluminum structure inside. At 200,000 feet and traveling more than 14,000 miles per hour the shuttle breaks up killing all on board. In a fast-response documentary produced just five weeks after the disaster and months before NASA's official report the film asks - was it an accident just waiting to happen? Space Shuttle Human Time Bomb explores over 30 years of Shuttle development. Were design compromises forced by the military creating an inherently dangerous vehicle?

NASA Gives Graphic Details of Columbia Deaths

How the Space Shuttle Columbia Tragedy Unfolded
On February 1, 2003, the space shuttle Columbia was reentering Earth's atmosphere after a two-week routine mission when it exploded, killing all seven astronauts aboard and scattering debris across multiple states. It was a horrific tragedy, particularly considering that the shuttle was on its 28th mission and had been a solid vehicle for space exploration and research since the 1980s. What happened to the space shuttle Columbia effectively ended NASA's shuttle program. In 2011, NASA's space shuttle fleet was officially retired.

On the 1st of February 2003, Space Shuttle Columbia punched through the earth's upper atmosphere. On board seven astronauts - unaware of the events that are about to unfold.
