Challenger and Columbia Disasters

The crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger are buried at various locations. Some are buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, while others are buried in private cemeteries according to their families' wishes.

The Soviet Union, both with a satellite and with a human.

In 1957, the Soviet Union successfully launched into Earth orbit the first artificial (man-made) satellite called Sputnik. I caused a shock around the world, and raised questions in the US as to how they beat us into space.

4 years later, Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first human in space after the Soviet Union launched his spacecraft into orbit with a Vostok launch vehicle. It caused an even bigger shock around the world than Sputnik did.

I think it's on pg23 at the very edge, underneath the light bulb. It's like a farmer's fork

I believe the string is on page 23 on the lower part of the dead branch. It kind of camouflages. It looks like a mini rope.

One is a parrot on the swim mask in the lower right hand corner; the other three are badmitton birdies (two on page 9, one on page 8)

no it is not

Kalpana Chawla is famous for being the first Indian American astronaut, as well as the first Indian woman that was sent into space. She was killed in the Space Shuttle Columbia Disaster in 2003.

Well there's all the noticeable people. Don't forget to count the yellow biker, the 2 people in the "crack" of the book, and in the "crack" of the book is a "School Crossing" sign with 2 people on it. Hope that helped. Also, I'm still looking for one more person.

Kalpana Chawla was born in Karnal, India, in 1961, the youngest of the four children of Banarsi Lal Chawla and Sanjogta Kharbanda. Both of them had the childhood experience of fleeing their homes during the late 1940s when India was torn apart by the struggle between Hindus and Muslims following the country's independence from Britain on August 15, 1947. Chawla's father himself narrowly escaped with his life, and eventually settled with his extended family far away from their ancestral village. Kharbanda was the daughter of a doctor. Her father eventually established a successful tire manufacturing business. The couple had daughters Sunita, and Deepa, then son, Sanjay, before their youngest daughter was born. Chawla, like her siblings, was an above-average student while attending the Tagore Bal Niketan Senior Secondary School in Karnal from which she graduated among the top five students in 1976. Chawla's mother told Darryl Fears for an article in the Washington Post that her daughter "was different." "She used to cut her own hair, never wore ironed clothes, learned karate." One of her teachers recounted a project she had done on the environment, making "huge, colorful charts and models depicting the sky and stars." From her earliest childhood, she and her brother shared an interest in flying--something that he would have to give up eventually due to medical concerns.

When she announced to her father that she wanted to study aerospace engineering in college, he told her she should study to be a doctor or teacher, "a more respectable profession," according to Michael Cabbage, writing a biography on the astronaut for the Orlando Sentinel. He would not accompany her to her interview, leaving that task to her mother. Undeterred by a male professor, who told her that engineering was "unladylike," Chawla obtained a bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering from Punjab Engineering College in India, in 1982. Though her father had hoped she and Sanjay would join him in the tire business, Chawla had other ideas. She was at the top of her class in engineering at the university and had been offered a job in her own college--but was accepted at the University of Texas for a master's also in aeronautical engineering. Because her father was traveling for his business at the time and no one but he could make the decision, Chawla took the teaching position. She had already attempted to go to flight school when her brother went but was unable to join the class without the consent of her father. When her father refused, her brother offered the advice that she must fight her own battles.

In his story to Josy Joseph for the web news organization, The Rediff Special, Chawla's father told the story of how he first discovered his daughter's wish was to go to America to study. "I returned after two months and reach Karnal late one evening. Kalpana was supposed to be home, but she wasn't. I asked about her. She is in Chandigarh, I was told. And then, someone said, 'Anyway why are you asking? You don't have time for her.' " he recalled after his daughter's death. When it set off a family revolt in a family whose wife and daughters were more liberal than the average woman of his community, he went to see Chawla who had already started her teaching position. The August 31 deadline for admission to Texas was fast approaching, only five days away. Determined to go when she could earn the money in another year, she was angry at her father for "destroying" her career. Then he told her that he was willing to provide the money for her, managing to call in some favors and get her a passport in only one day, and arrange for a visa the next. Only two days later, Chawla was ready to get on a flight for Texas with her brother when it was first delayed, and then canceled. She was able to arrange to be admitted late, with the university picking up her and her brother at the airport.

Challenger was destroyed during takeoff on STS-51-L. (January 28, 1986)

Christa McAuliffe, along with six other brave astronauts died in the Challenger Space shuttle disaster on January 28, 1986. The Challenger exploded 73 seconds after launch,50,000 feet in the air.

The election of 1984 was first. Challenger exploded in January 1986.

One is green, one is red and one is white. Most people have trouble finding the white tee, and the simple answer is standing up on the right side of the stairs (near the bottom of the page)! I hope this helped :)

The Story revolves around the Social Stigma associated with HIV and AIDS.

People still associate HIV immoral lifestyle though the reasons may be numerous. This causes a person suffering from HIV to be subjected to a lot of shame and consequently forces them to hide their problems and deal with them quietly, when actually they need all the help they can get.

The writer uses the example of Ashok who recently discovers from the Doctors at Command Hospital Pune that he is suffering from HIV.

The doctor shows innate contempt for Ashok which causes him to feel ashamed. Furthermore, he is subjected to discriminatory treatment from the hospital staff.

This is the essence of the story: The Social Stigma and pain that patients have to go through.

What needs to be done though is to help these patients understand that life does not end with the contraction of HIV, and with treatment and proper counseling they can lead a normal life too

All 7 of them.
