The untold story of a national trauma—NASA’s Challenger explosion—and what really happened to America’s Teacher in Space, illuminating the tragic cost of humanity setting its sight on the starsYou’ve seen the pictures. You know what happened. Or do you?On January 28, 1986, NASA’s space shuttle Challenger exploded after blasting off from Cape Canaveral. Christa McAuliffe, America’s “Teacher in Space,” was instantly killed, along with the other six members of the mission. At least that's what most of us remember.Kevin Cook tells us what really happened on that ill-fated, unforgettable day. He traces the pressures—leading from NASA to the White House—that triggered the fatal order to launch on an ice-cold Florida morning. Cook takes readers inside the shuttle for the agonizing minutes after the explosion, which the astronauts did indeed survive. He uncovers the errors and corner-cutting that led an overconfident space agency to launch a crew that had no chance to escape.But this is more than a corrective to a now-dimming memory. Centering on McAuliffe, a charmingly down-to-earth civilian on the cusp of history, The Burning Blue animates a colorful cast of characters: a pair of red-hot flyers at the shuttle's controls, the second female and first Jewish astronaut, the second Black astronaut, and the first Asian American and Buddhist in space. Drawing vivid portraits of Christa and the astronauts, Cook makes readers forget the fate they're hurtling toward. With drama, immediacy, and shocking surprises, he reveals the human price the Challenger crew and America paid for politics, capital-P Progress, and the national dream of "reaching for the stars."

Book The Burning Blue: The Untold Story of Christa McAuliffe and NASA's Challenger Disaster Review :



The Burning Blue is nicely written and a quick read. For those of us who lived through the Challenger tragedy, it brings back many painful memories. The focus of the book is on Christa McAuliffe, America’s “Teacher in Space.” Ironically, after reading the book, I found her less appealing than before. She had absolutely no business being on the shuttle mission and the entire fiasco was little more than an effort to extort more money from a reluctant Congress. I had forgotten that there were other “civilians” in space, most notably Congressmen Bill Nelson and Jack Garn. These so called “pay load specialists” took up space and did little to advance either science or the program. The same was true of Christa McAuliffe. Ironically, John Glenn was guilty of the same offense when he flew into space at age 77. I heard in person some astronauts complain that this was not about John Glenn, the astronaut, but about John Glenn the Senator. It was a power play and not worthy of a man who was undeniably an American hero. The information about the explosion has, indeed, been told in other places but it is still worth revisiting some 35 years later. The detail about Christa McAulliffe’s training and preparation is very interesting as well as her difficulty mastering the information she was supposedly to teach America’s children. Her goal was to write a journal of her experience and that is not enough to be given a coveted spot on a shuttle mission. The nation would have benefited far more from a Tom Wolfe writing about such an experience since he was the true chronicler of America in the 20th Century and his book, the Right Stuff, is still the best book on the space program. The person who would have been a better subject for this book is Judy Resnick. She comes across as brilliant woman who was a true scientific pioneer. It is ironic that her legacy is subordinate to a government publicity stunt.
What I learned from this book: 1. This should never of happened. The powers that be at NASA were warned by the O-ring engineers that it was too cold and that the O-rings might fail. For stupid political reasons, the officials at NASA decided to launch anyway. In my opinion, these people committed murder and should’ve been held accountable and put in jail. 2. NASA will lie to cover their mistakes. They told multiple lies about this incident and I’m sure the same is true of the Columbia disaster. 3. So much was made about the “teacher in space” that the other six members of the crew were generally overlooked. All of them were brilliant and talented in other areas. This was a tragedy that involved more than the teacher. Many families and friends suffered as well. 4. One of NASA’s lies was that the crew was killed in the explosion. It is now known that those poor people were alive possibly as long as 2 to 3 minutes after the explosion and knew what was death was imminent. Well written and interesting but so so sad. I remember when this happened and how many millions of times the media showed the film showing the explosion. This was just torture for the families and friends of the crew. I don’t know how any astronaut could trust NASA after this incident.
