It was the early morning of 1st of February 2003…and the atmosphere in the NASA Control Room at Kennedy Space Centre was upbeat…although with a bit of jitters and…lot of anxiety. NASA’s space shuttle…Columbia…was in the final leg of its journey back to earth…and was just minutes away from re-entering the earth’s atmosphere

In yet another interesting discovery by the scientists, a piece of the rocky planet was found on the surface of Mars which apparently looked as if it was smiling back at them. This image resembling a teddy bear on Mars captured by NASA’s Orbiter has to be one of the most pleasant moments of 2023.

The internationally-funded mission
will also include Canadian
astronaut Jeremy Hansen.
However, according to former astronaut
Garrett Reisman, NASA's final selection process
includes some surprising requirements.
The problem is it can be influenced by trivial
things, like what size spacesuit you wear.
If there is only a medium and a large and you
need the extra-large, you’re screwed. You’re
not going to get assigned to the mission. , Garrett Reisman, Former NASA astronaut, via 'The Byte'.
It can be crazy, little things that dictate how
it all comes out and it’s not always the most
equitable or transparent process, Garrett Reisman, Former NASA astronaut, via 'The Byte'

This Day in History:, Challenger Disaster.
January 28, 1986.
73 seconds after its 11:38 a.m. launch,
NASA's space shuttle exploded,
killing all seven crew members.
Among the crew was Christa McAuliffe,
a 37-year-old high school social
studies teacher from New Hampshire.
McAuliffe had won a
competition that earned
her a place on the Challenger.
Millions witnessed
the tragedy on live television.
In the aftermath, President Ronald Reagan
appointed a special commission to
determine what went wrong with Challenger.
The investigation determined
the disaster was caused by
the failure of an “O-ring” seal
due to cold weather.
It would be two
years before NASA sent
astronauts into space again
