The third space shuttle to tragically disintegrate was the Space Shuttle Columbia. It broke apart upon re-entry into Earth's atmosphere on February 1, 2003, resulting in the loss of all seven crew members. The disaster was attributed to damage sustained during launch, which compromised the shuttle's thermal protection system.
