Which crew members of Challenger STS-51-L were in scouting?
Astronaut Ellison Onizuka participated in scouting and reached the level of Eagle Scout. However STS-51L had another connection to scouting as well. One of the items flown in STS-51L's flight kit was an American Flag sponsored by Boy Scout Troop 514 of Monument, Colorado. Their scoutmaster, William Tolbert (A major in the USAF space command), ordered the flag and arranged for it to be flown over the US Capitol in Washington, D.C., then flown on the space shuttle during STS-51L. However STS-51L ended in disaster as the space shuttle Challenger was destroyed. Later divers found the the flag, still completely intact and sealed in a plastic bag. The flag was returned to Boy Scout troop 514 in a special ceremony, presented by astronaut Guy Bluford (Also a past Eagle scout).

A total of 53 space shuttle missions have launched from pad 39-B, although no more are planned in the future. In the future, pad 39-B is planned to be used for Ares I launches.
Does Ronald McNair have a wife?

How did the Challenger Center get its name?
The Challenger Center was named and established to memorialize the seven astronauts of the STS-51L space shuttle mission who were killed during launch in January 1986. The families wanted to make the deaths of their loved ones meaningful and spearheaded the establishment.
What cabinet position had been held by the head of the commission that investigated the STS-51L disaster?
William P. Rogers held two cabinet positions; he was U.S. Attorney General under President Eisenhower and U.S. Secretary of State under President Nixon.
How many astronauts were on board the challenger?
If you are referring to its' final mission, STS-51L, there were seven crew members: Francis R. "Dick" Scobee, commander; Michael J. Smith, pilot; Ellison Onizuka, Mission Specialist 1; Judith A. Resnik, Mission Specialist 2; Ronald A. McNair, Mission Specialist 3; Sharon Christa McAuliffe (civilian), Payload Specialist 1; and Gregory Jarvis, Payload Specialist 2.
What economic impact did the challenger disaster have?
The Challenger disaster certainly did lead to a harsh economic impact. An average space shuttle launch costs about $450 million. Because STS-51L (Challenger's final mission) was a failure, the money spent preparing the mission was lost. As a result of the disaster, in 1987 the United States Congress authorized the construction of a new space shuttle to replace Challenger. Rockwell International was contracted to build the Space Shuttle Endeavour. Although Endeavour was built using structural spares and some spare parts, its construction still cost about $1.7 billion. The primary objective of STS-51L was to deploy the TDRS-B (Tracking and Data Relay Satellite) communication satellite for use by NASA. The satellite cost NASA about a quarter of a billion dollars. TDRS-B was later replaced by TDRS-G on STS-70 in 1995. Another big impact from the Challenger disaster was the cost of the investigation into the accident, correcting problems that lead to the accident, improving Space Shuttle safety, and replacing lost equipment. In 1986, NASA estimated these as costing $240.5 million in 1986 and $245 million in 1987. However the actual costs were larger. There are many other NASA projects and economic factors that were impacted by the Challenger disaster. For instance, NASA's part-time astronaut program and the Air Force's Vandenberg AFB launches were canceled. Calculating the total economic impact of the Challenger disaster is probably impossible.
