Which space shuttle Challenger or Endeavor had more traveling time?
challenger
What time did the space shuttle blow up?
11 am 74 seconds into flight
What are the names of the two space shuttles that malfunctioned and exploded?
No space shuttles have exploded in space. Challenger disintegrated during launch and Columbia during the re-entry process. Neither were in space at the time. challenger and Columbia +++ The Challenger shuttle itself did not explode. The explosion was of the massive booster rockets lifting it into Space, after a seal failed on one, allowing fuel to leak and ignite. The shuttle remained fairly intact although very badly damaged, and I believe was subsequently recovered from the sea-bed.
At what time did the Challenger space shuttle explode?
Liftoff was at 11:38:00.010 Eastern Standard Time. The O-ring failure developed almost immediately, leading to the explosion and breaking apart of the shuttle 73 seconds into the flight.
Where is the challenger space shutter?
The Challenger space shuttle no longer exists. It was destroyed shortly after take-off on 28th January 1986. The explosion was widely publicised, as it was being shown live on TV at the time. The cause of the accident was attributed to 'O-ring failure' on the right solid rocket booster.

If you go in a space shuttle if it is cold will it blow up?
If you mean, if it is cold in space will the shuttle blow up, the answer is no. It is very cold in areas hidden from sunlight, and equipment is designed to expect that. If you mean, if it is cold on earth at the time of launch, the answer is maybe. It is believed the space shuttle Challenger blew up after launch and during ascent (on its way to space) because the cold morning in Florida made the seals brittle on the solid rockets that lift the shuttle off the ground. This in turn caused fire to come out of the rocket which led to the explosion of the large liquid fuel tank (the big orange tank the orbiter sits on for launch. However, there had been launches on colder days, so cold alone is not the only factor.
Why made Sally Ride well known?
What made Sally Ride well known is that she was an American civilian school teacher who was aboard the space shuttle called Challenger, which exploded 76 seconds into its flight, killing all aboard. As a civilian, her participation in the Challenger flight had been heavily publicized and more than the usual number of people were watching the lift off at the time. All seven people aboard perished in the Challenger Space Shuttle in 1986.
