On February 1, 2003, NASA’s Space Shuttle Columbia broke apart during re-entry, just 16 minutes before landing. The hidden damage from launch — a small hole in the left wing caused by falling foam — turned deadly as superheated air entered at over 1,650°C, ripping the shuttle apart over Texas skies. Among the seven astronauts who perished was Kalpana Chawla, the first woman of Indian origin in space, whose legacy continues to inspire millions. This video explains the step-by-step events of that

Explore l Learn l Facts on Instagram: "landing a space shuttle isn’t like landing a normal plane — it’s a controlled fall from space. the shuttle begins by re-entering the atmosphere at incredible speed, using heat-resistant tiles to survive temperatures hotter than lava. pilots then guide it like a glider, because the shuttle has no engines to slow down or climb back up. they make wide sweeping turns to reduce speed, align perfectly with the runway, and touch down fast — nearly twice the speed
