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
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.
How many time did Sally Ride take to space?
Sally Ride went to space twice. Her first mission was on the Space Shuttle Challenger in 1983, and her second was also on Challenger in 1984. She was the first American woman in space.
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.

What was the cause of the challenger expolsion?
The Challenger Explosion was caused by an external tank explosion. The space shuttle broke apart due to gasses mixing in the external fuel tank. The shuttle exploded and the space shuttle was torn apart.
When did Sally Ride go to space the second time?
Sally Ride went to space for the second time on October 5, 1984, as a mission specialist on the space shuttle Challenger during mission STS-41-G.
What time did the challenger disaster happen?
The Challenger disaster occurred on January 28, 1986, at 11:39 AM EST. The Space Shuttle Challenger broke apart just 73 seconds after liftoff, leading to the tragic loss of all seven crew members on board.
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.
How did the explosion of the challenger space ship happen?
The explosion of the Challenger space shuttle in 1986 was caused by the failure of an O-ring seal in one of the solid rocket boosters. The O-ring failure was due to unusually cold temperatures at the time of launch, which compromised the O-ring's ability to seal properly and ultimately led to the catastrophic explosion.
When did Marc garneau go into space?
Marc Garneau went into space for the first time on October 5, 1984 as part of NASA's Space Shuttle Challenger mission STS-41-G. He became the first Canadian astronaut in space.
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.
