Did they find the space shuttle challengers capsule?
The Space Shuttle is not a capsule, it's a spacecraft. They found many pieces of the Challenger space shuttle, including the crew compartment.
How long does it take a space capsule to reach Earth?
The time it takes for a space capsule to reach Earth can vary depending on its mission profile and entry angle. Typically, it takes about 30 minutes to an hour from the moment the capsule begins its re-entry until it lands. For example, NASA's Crew Dragon capsule usually takes around 30 to 40 minutes from re-entry to splashdown. However, this duration can be influenced by factors such as the capsule's speed and trajectory.
How many people can Apollo carry at one time?

Why didn't they have a gps LOCATING device on the challenger?
Would not have helped. The blast separated the craft into too many pieces. Even one in the crew capsule (which survived the blast) would not have helped. The black boxes in the crew capsule recorded all the details of the flight up to impact with the water which crushed the crew capsule, killed the crew, and interrupted the crew capsule backup power on which the black boxes (and any locating GPS if present) were operated. The crew capsule was located after weeks of analyzing radar tracking data, filtering out small debris pieces plus tracking camera footage then computing its freefall trajectory.

How are you going to travel to space after space shuttles?
Orion crew ares 1 capsule looks like Apollo
How do astronauts get to the Iss and back?
Currently, astronauts and cosmonauts return to Earth in a Soyuz capsule. The Soyuz capsule has a curved ablative heat shield that is used to prevent heat from building up and penetrating the crew cabin. As the capsule plummets through the atmosphere it slams into molecules of air.
What project was after Apollo?
Directly following the end of the Apollo program was the Apollo Soyuz Test Program (ASTP) which, using Apollo flight hardware, performed the first international rendezvous and docking when the ASTP crew docked with a Russian Soyuz capsule. The next true program, one that required all new hardware, was the Shuttle Transport System, (STS). Also known as the Space Shuttle.
What is the name of the three-man spacecraft?
The first U.S. three-man capsule was named Apollo. The Russian three-man capsule is named the Soyuz, and is still in use today, carrying crew to and from the International Space Station.
What of these is an example of government corruption?
