This is the most remembered failure in the history of ⚠ space exploration. 

The aeronautical catastrophe occurred at the sight of all, during a live transmission by CNN📺.   After an impressive explosion, the compartment where the astronauts travelled fired in a fireball and continued to go up a few more kilometres before falling ❌. The fall lasted approximately two minutos👎. On board the Challenger was also Professor Christa McAuliffe, who, unfortunately, had won the contest "a professor in space", being in the first civilian who flew on a  space mission.
