The US manned space program was temporarily suspended in 1986 following the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, where the Challenger shuttle broke apart 73 seconds after liftoff, resulting in the tragic loss of all seven crew members. The suspension was in place to investigate the causes of the accident and ensure the safety of future missions.
The US space program resumed Space Shuttle missions on September 29, 1988 with the launch of Space Shuttle Discovery (STS-26). This mission marked the return to flight following the Challenger tragedy on January 28, 1986.
The two US space shuttles that faced tragedy were Challenger, which disintegrated shortly after launch in 1986, and Columbia, which broke apart upon reentry in 2003. Both accidents resulted in the loss of all crew members on board.
