It was April 19, 1971. The Soviet Union had just launched the world’s first space station into low Earth orbit, named Salyut-1 [Sal-yoot]. Two months later, on June 6, 1971, the Soyuz 11 [Soy-ooz] would make a trip to the orbiting space station with cosmonauts Georgi Dobrovolski,[Ghee-ohr-ghee Dough-bro-vole-skee] Vladislav Volkov [Vol-cove], and Viktor Patsayev [Pat-sigh-yev] aboard the spacecraft. The Soyuz 11 launched into space, and the three cosmonauts boarded the Salyut-1 space station on June 7, 1971, without any trouble, and were there to carry out three weeks of experiments, such as growing Chinese cabbage and bulb onions, taking spectrograms of stars, and snapping some ‘from orbit’ photos of the snow and ice on the River Volga. They were now heroes, famous, and plastered all over Soviet evening television. On June 29th, 1971, with the cosmonaut's primary mission complete, the Soyuz 11 finally undocked from the Salyut-1, and three hours later, the spacemen fired their ship’s engine to return to Earth. Vladislav Volkov joked with flight control and asked them to make sure their traditional welcome-home gift of cognac would be waiting for them at the landing site.
At twenty-nine minutes before touchdown, and at an altitude of 160 kilometers [100 miles], explosive charges fired as planned to separate the Soyuz 11’s orbital bell-shaped capsule and instrument modules. The space capsule was now the cosmonaut's only defense against the fiery furnace of re-entry.
But then something unexpected happened…

*Correction, three men died while returning to ground. Not lost in space.
Thank you
Yes I remember, I was 6 lol, it was a leaking air valve, to use a spanner to close the valve cost more time than the astronauts had to shut the valve...
Ofcourse I remember the Challenger disaster. The o-rings froze and the flame pierced the fueltank; hubris I'm afraid. I certainly remember Columbia, part of the re-entry tiles had been damaged by foam on lift-off.
😭😭😭
They were above the Karman Line when they perished. So ya, they were lost while in space. They are the only ones to have died in space.
@@bernardtimmer6723 And Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee.
misleading title.
fr
That's what i said..🤣🤣
Another correction, the columbia catastrophy was not the last shuttle flight. They build the whole ISS and did also flew to hubble after that, but regular heat shield inspections where made on each flight after columbia.
Exactly, where do these people get their information???
Apparently nowhere.
I was looking for this comment… not even close, they flew another 8 years!
It's beyond belief that they said that. Morons.
THERE IS SUCH THING AS A CAPS LOCK. GET REAL.
yeah they definitely need to get their facts correct
The Space shuttle program was not abandoned after the Columbia disaster on Feb. 1, 2003 but continued up until July 21 2011 with the return of the Space Shuttle Atlantis on mission STS-135.
what about SSP any thoughts
Did I misunderstand something? At the end of the video, the narrator states of the Columbia 2003 mission, "It was the last space shuttle launch and the space shuttle program was permanently retired after this."
The Columbia disaster on 1 February 2003 was the 113th space shuttle mission. The last mission was the 135th, an Atlantis mission, on 8 July 2011, more than eight years later.
What did I miss?
yeah for real i caught that too LMAO
Yes, I, too, understood the voiceover in the video making the incorrect statement that Columbia was the last shuttle flight.
The amount of inaccurate/incorrect information in RUclips‘s comment sections(And, in this example and others, its video content) is indicative of the increasing ignorance of the general public and one of many causes of media proliferation of misunderstanding of what should be shared general knowledge. When will people begin to realize that their opinions are NOT facts and that the understanding of subject matter often requires hard work, extensive study, and attention to detail? Unfortunately, I expect the Dunning Kruger effect to continue to expand rather than decrease amongst our population.
For real... we wouldn't have finished the ISS if this was true... for sure signed the death of the program though.
You are correct; the video got that wrong.
He either doesn't know what he's talking about or he LIED through his teeth.
My oldest brother was career Air Force from about 1953 through approximately 1983.He worked mainly in air traffic control One year he was sent on a remote tour (family members could not go) to Iceland. When his tour of duty was up and he came back to the US, he described how, in the early 70's they picked up distress signals from Russian Cosmonauts quite often. They were sent into space, and for unknown reasons, (mechanical failures?) Russian ground control could not bring them back to earth. Their Cosmonauts orbiting earth were pleading for help from anyone until their oxygen ran out, and they died. The US didn't have the capability nor the technology to launch anything that could rescue them. The US had just put men on the moon on July 20, 1969.
sure that they were supposed to return?
A guy named Winslow Peck wrote in 'Ramparts' in the 1970s that when he worked for an NSA listening post in Turkey [no typo, I don't mean 'NASA'] he had been told by old-timers about such a death. It seems to have been a folklore of the spook profession, to rattle the newbies. After the collapse of the USSR and the mass opening up of internal documents and personal diaries, it became verified that none of the stories were accurate.
My dad said the same thing. Except there was a lot more gay sex
So sorry 😢
I like how the title and thumbnail imply information about being lost in space -- but literally none was present in the video. Getting tired of having misleading titles & thumbnails... just about all of these 'space/science' channels are doing it constantly.
i know, you would think they are better than this, but unfortunately no
@@D34671 It's so scummy. & unnecessary. People would've clicked to see the actual incident that happened
@@frankmarano1118 EXACTLY, i was originally going to comment that point myself, like space is always interesting, no need for deception loool
Yeah it happens a lot and they just do it for views and it’s already a story that’s been done over and over
@@alanluscombe8a553 yeah exactly! It's common sense! Like people wouldn't want to hear about people losing oxygen from a hole in the shuttle when coming back to earth. I could even think of a decent title off the top of my head.
"Catastrophic shuttle malfunction during Soviet astronauts return back to earth. This is what happened in their final moments"
People would click on that! & that was just off the top of my head, I have no doubt it could be made even better just thinking on it for a few minutes. In the thumbnail it could say, "Unknown space tragedy"
Thank you for the great video! Actually, there were 22 space shuttle missions after the tragic loss of the Space Shuttle Columbia and its crew. Although the ill-fated Columbia mission was "STA 107", it was actually the 113th space shuttle mission, and this launch was followed by 22 additional space shuttle launches. The last one being Space Shuttle Atlantis STS 135, the 135th mission on 8 July 2011. Hats off to all the astronauts and their families as space travel is truly a very dangerous endeavor.
Indeed, my friend!
CIA and NASA never want no info released at all.
They have carried out covet operations and neutralised all those who have brought the known, their brains are removed.
F**k CIA and NASA
Imagine this. Both US accidents happened because someone on the ground downplayed the damage.
I think the problem of them downplaying it was due to knowing they had no chance to survive the entry and wanted to keep them at ease not thinking that they were going to die the entire time.
@@TheArtonSlo yes that would be the ideal way to handle it
@@TheArtonSlo the ground probably knew they were doomed but what choice did they have? They did NOT tell the crew though because they knew that death was gonna be pretty instantaneous so you have a valid point. I would have told them though and in fact I would have told john q as well. the real problem here was lousy design from the getgo. that orbiter was under maximum dynamic for WAY TOO LONG! Why? Size matters. Example. from deorbit burn to touchdown under Apollo was 11 minutes. For STS it was over an HOUR! Size matters. The more mass the longer it takes. The other solution is to NOT use CHEMICAL rockets! sure just keep "burning" (via something that we have NOT invented). that way you do NOT drop like a rock! yep just like here on the surface kinetics matters.
we also don't have anything to counteract plasma build (heat is thus transferred directly to the body causing friction to begin with). yeah we got some serious issues that need to be resolved BEFORE we go exploring in space. why? because its a very nasty place for organics to be venturing into.
@@TheArtonSlo how about fixing it? No. It was incompetence. And that is all
@@Veritaserum90 How were they supposed to fix it if it happened during the launch? You can't just cancle a launch mid flight. Also the size of damage might've only been seen when already in space and that point they already knew the craft would not make it back so at least let them do what they love and let them enjoy space without the crushing knowledge that they are going to die.
Even though America and Russia aren't necessarily the best of friends, we always hope the cosmonauts make it home safely to their families, it's such a tragedy this happened. Space travel is incredibly dangerous, but these men knew the dangers and went anyway for the future of space exploration
Russia is planning to withdraw from the ISS program in 2024.
Whahahahaha they are the best friends this 2 country's maked a lot of money together with each other.
You know JFK actually suggested USSR and USA go to the moon TOGETHER! That would have been amazing!
Scientists are scientists.
In dangerous environments, there is no enemies but the environment. When the environment is peaceful, that is when enemies are made.
The deaths of the Shuttle Astronauts were near instantaneous. They probably felt no pain. The deaths of the Cosmonauts was more horrific. They knew air was leaking and they panickly searched for the hole. Their last minutes were full of fear and horror and their deaths must have been painful.
RIP to all of Earth’s children who ventured beyond the final frontier.
u just said they probably felt no pain and then ur saying their deaths must’ve been so painful

Oh my god it is so weird to imagine being lost in space, drifting away...
Don't worry. Gravity will pull you down eventually.
And hitting some astoroid
@@limbo3545 you'll be dead YEARS before that happens...
Astronauts have jet packs as a lanyard backup. But the Russians do not. I don't know about the Chinese but they're SMART. More than likely they have jet packs as well.
@@leecowell8165 I haven't specified a time.
Not mentioned in the video was the Apollo 1 tragedy on January of 1967 when all three astronauts were burned to death, while on the launch pad conducting a pre-launch rehearsal. The other tragedy also occurred in 1967 on the month of April when Soyuz’s 1 cosmonaut was killed in reentry when the parachute failed to open.
I was expecting to hear a story about 3 astronauts/cosmonauts who failed to re-enter Earth either they got the re-entry angle wrong and they bounced back into orbit/space or some mechanical failure kept them in orbit and they died due to lack of oxygen. And the idea of being stuck in space where you know there’s no chance of rescue is scary! Just waiting for your water, food or worse oxygen to run out is terrifying! I’d just hope that I had a suicide pill
Exactly
the "or no oxygen" part doesn't actually sound scary but rather preferable lol
@@filipbelciug not the point.
"You will run out of oxygen in 26 hours, now sit and think about your impending doom for a day"
..Tick tock
..Tick tock
....Tick tock
@@bigjerm1631 i'm sure u can find a way to release the oxygen into space and rush ur death sentence. I'd personally do it in that situation. It's much better than dying of starvation or dehydration
Always have a suicidal 💊
CRAP WARNING. No astronaut was ever "lost" in space. "Almost 25 minutes later, Soyuz 11's automatic systems landed the craft at 23:16:52 GMT, 90 km southwest of Karazhal in Kazakhstan, after an apparently normal return to Earth. The total flight duration of the crew had been 570.22 hours and involved 383 orbits-18 prior to docking, 362 docked, and three after undocking. However, when the recovery team opened the capsule of the Soyuz 11 they found the crew dead".
In the U.S. the two Space Shuttle disasters resulted in the deaths of a total of 14 astronauts and crew members. The Apollo1 test launch pad fire in February 1967 took the lives of three astronauts.
Columbia was certainly not the last space shuttle flight. The programme was suspended for 2-3 years, then continued until 2011. There was a total of 22 shuttle flights after Columbia disaster.
he said, that the programme was suspended for 2 years didnt he?
@@noel7223 Then said that this was the last shuttle flight. @12:25
imagine being lost in space. my anxiety spiked just thinking about it lol
I'll have to Imagine because the video never actually tells any stories about it

I did imagine it, first thought I had was.. FINALY!! No more bull S#*@ 😅 no more work, no more worries. You're already out there. You know you're just waiting to die.. so why not enjoy it? Kind of like right now😊
@@JonnyMo_Outdoors it’s the suffocating that I don’t want. I was in a room which was filling up with phosphine gas (a gas used in WW1 commonly known as mustard gas) and when I breathed in and didn’t get air it’s a really strange feeling that’s hard to explain as you take breathing air so normally but when you breathe in phosphine it not only hurts but doesn’t satisfy your air intake (like I said hard to explain unless experienced) and it also burns your eyes too with a smell scorched into my brain which I still remember to this day 20yrs later. Luckily I escaped the room to outside and had oxygen when the ambulance arrived. I expect suffocating with no air to be a similar experience. Funny enough I was watching a documentary on Netflix last month about how WW1 was started and they talked about how phosphine gas was a new weapon used as a way to kill hundreds/thousands of men and horses in the Baltic wars first in the 19th century and WW1 later on bringing chemical weapons as a new way to fight wars. Absolutely horrible way to die
joe Biden knows what it is like , he is lost in his own space with no chance f recovery
Our junior year physics teacher wheeled a TV in and made us watch the Challenger launch as a prelude to a pop quiz on ballistics and vectors. We did not have a quiz that day.
What a horror
Lost in Space. What a great title for a TV show! Forget it, that would never work. It would make as much sense as a TV show where people get stranded on an island.
The Challenger crew survived the explosion, living until their cabin hit the water. At least three of them were still conscious until impact. This information is from recordings and data recovered after the incident. Flight engineers told flight control that an O-ring was going to fail at "Go to throttle up" and that is exactly what happened.
As their oxygen would not last 2 minutes that it took the crew cabin to reach earth, they all died before hitting the water. Only three had there Personal Egress Air Pack activated and oxygen consumption stopped at 90 seconds.
Damn
Even NASA confirmed that three were still alive and aware just before impact with the water below, research it.
There is oxygen in the suit, other than the one who turned on the emergency supplies for the others, the explosion likely rendered them unconscious or already dead from snapped necks.
Thank You. I was waiting for someone to point that out. Obviously the researcher has not read the Rogers Commission report!
I lived 190 miles from Kennedy Space Center, on the west coast of Florida, during the shuttle program. I used to love to watch the night time launches from my front yard. It looked like the tip of a cigarette with a smoke tail going up into the sky.
I was just about to say-
"How does a small chunk of foam do anything to a space shuttle!?"
And then you showed me and I was like
"HOLY SH^T!" LOL
Yet another correction; The seven people aboard Challenger were not killed instantly. The section of shuttle the crew were in was blown clear of the rest of the fireball. They were likely still alive up until the moment of surface impact.
Yes and no..They would have been alive, but they would have been unconscious and non-responsive due to the high g forces on the capsule most likely they were in a coma-like state where their brains were almost completely destroyed due to the sudden impacts.
how comforting of you to share that with the rest of us
Talks about 3 soviet men lost in space… proceeds to talk about the space shuttle disasters for half of the video..
Yeah so this definitely wasn’t the last space shuttle launch… The shuttle program continued until its last launch on July 8, 2011, and return on July 21, 2011 via Shuttle Atlantis. Please correct this incorrect data.
no idea what to write 😂
Jst the first one
facts ur second tho
Thank you for your videos
Love your videos,but umm what part of the video does it say 3 people where lost in space? All the storys talk about how the people died on the way back not , lost in space 🤷.
they weren't lost in space they were lost on the pad here at Cape Canaveral. probably before your time.
@@leecowell8165 That eluded to Soyuz 11 who were the only ones to lose their live above the Karman Line. (Edge of space). The powered up test of Apollo 1 is before most of these idiots time.
I always dreamed of being an astronaut! It was my dream job from when I was 10 years old! And watching this video doesn't make me want it a bit less that before, prays to the people who lost their lives, firefighters, the Military and all who where brave to sacrifice them selfs like that for the greater good🙏🕊❤
I remember that day very well. I was in the library at my Jr. High and the televisions were on. So sad that was.
Really like your channel
And, no one took the blame or was prosecuted for incompetence when evidence was jettisoned for mission completion...terrible management for risking lives & shuttle and, future shuttle achievements!
Sick editing 💥
When you see the videos of the people inside mission control during the Challenger Disaster, you can literally see them go through massive waves of emotion in a split second as their brains catch up with the reality of what just happened. There is one that always comes to mind (I wish I knew who was in the video) but you can watch him go from happy everything is going good to, what the hell, to denial, to oh my god as he realises what he just saw on the screen after it blew up.
You explained that amazingly
I once joked in HS that the shuttle blew up back in the early 80's . I had no respect for the design and always knew the dangers if something horribly wet wrong and it did, engineers expressed concern at the extremely cold temperatures that morning and nobody paid them any mind to their concerns. Same type of shit happened years later regarding the foam insulation for the fuel tank. hey were warned not to switch from the older tried and true formula to the new environmental friendly formula. Astronauts know the risks but it's horrible when people lose their lives due to incompetence.
@Matthew Richard. You’re probably referring to the video of flight director Leroy Cain. The immediate waves of shock and horror that came over him (and others in Mission Control) is unforgettable. Then Cain says, “lock the doors.” I’ll never forget that line.
@@brickaddict1964 "You’re probably referring to the video of flight director Leroy Cain. " == Cain was Entry FD for Columbia, his face reflected the minute or two when the disaster was still disbelievable, until it was clear they had been killed. The Ascent FD for Challenger was Jay Greene, he had seen the disintegration on the front screen.
@@brickaddict1964 "GC, lock the doors" -- 'Ground Control" [front row far left] was the controller responsible for the functioning of MOCR equipment.
Just thinking about being lost in endless, dark, terrifying, lonely space..n dying there in ur space suit alone!..😭😭😭
P.s. great video, misleading title..
Correction the 1986 shuttle disaster (booster failure caused burning of fuels to engulf shuttle) looked like one hell of explosion but was not the case.....after takeoff at 73 seconds did not kill the crew instantly the cabin is very secure and explosion happened about 77m below the cabin on a rocket booster causing collateral damage throughout, but the cabin of the shuttle along with the main engine continued to travel in front of all the debris for many seconds the crew sadly lived through all of it including falling 66,666ft. into the ocean they died on impact hitting the ocean's surface.
RIP 🙏
With all the ten’s of thousands of engineers, have wondered if any, ever thought of a braking system for the cone nose in the advent this would ever happen.
@@billymatthews7346 There was a proposal for a cabin ejection system, but it was deemed too impractical and costly to impliment.
@@trespire understand thank you
Exactly, credibility of said channel dropping rapidly.
The 1986 Congressional report included this memo from Joseph P. Kenvin, a physician for NASA and former astronaut. His conclusions were backed up by two separate investigations of the same data:
"The cause of death of the Challenger astronauts cannot be positively determined; The forces to which the crew were exposed during Orbiter breakup were probably not sufficient to cause death or serious injury; and The crew possibly, but not certainly, lost consciousness in the seconds following Orbiter breakup due to in-flight loss of crew module pressure."
14 people lost in two space disasters!
Excellent video, thank you 🫡
4:22 ''Faulty valve'' and the video shows a valvetrain of an internal combustion engine. This was funny. 😀
😂😂😂
Doesn't matter whether they were cosmonauts or NASA's astronauts, it is very tragic and just goes to show you what can happen -- OFF Earth! These brave pioneers in our past have all been in the space race and a few of them have perished, like in the Challenger (O-ring) and Columbia (loose piece of insulation foam) incidents for our Country and who knows how many of other countries because some of them don't want anyone to know! RIP. But we learn from mistakes and we don't let them happen again!
Oh no ....a tragedy 😔
There are conspiracy theories that Gagarin was not the first Russian into space. The first one died and the Russians covered it up. This story actually has some credibility.
@@scotth6814 He did not die but he crashed in the Mountains in what I believe was Tibet..and lived. He may even still be alive. The interview I saw with him had him working at some type of flight museum if I recall. He was a very decorated pilot as was his father. The incident was covered-up and it was reported that he was in a car crash and that's why he was in the hospital for so long in another country?? He was almost certainly the first person in space. Some believe Gagarin had impostor syndrome as a result and this contributed to his drinking, increasingly erratic behavior that ultimately became a significant source of concern and possibly led to the 'intentional accident' that got him killed.
this a hit bro bro banger huge like great track
Very interesting, thank you for giving me light
My condolences to their families
The story about a valve failure aboard the Russian capsule, was a picture of an automobile cylinder head.
Yes, a rocker shaft🤣
Great explanations. I've never seen the foam strike simulation...
Thank for info
the chief SRB engineer of the Challenger flight repeatedly warned of the *fact* that o-ring failure was inevitable due to the low temperatures, even showing post flight examination of o-ring from previous low temp flights which had eroded as much as 70% of the o-ring and +4 degrees C
he was ignored and the SRB technical team gave the go ahead despite his warnings - the poor guy later committed suicide as a result, which makes the fatality count 8
Management can be real d*** heads preferring to worry more about their careers than listening to an engineer that is trying to save lives.
But we know, NASA probably gave pay raises and bonuses to the managers that are responsible for the fatalities that day. 🙄
Chief engineer Roger Boisjoly left Thiokol after giving detailed post-disaster testimony and being shunned by his colleagues. He later became a speaker on workplace ethics, and was awarded the Award for Scientific Freedom and Responsibility by the American Association for the Addvancement of Science.
He died in 2012, at age 73, from colon, kidney and liver cancer.
Maybe you are referring to Mike Clemons who had simply tested o-ring materials.
According to family members, his suicide in June 1986 was unrelated to the Challenger disaster or his job.
The whole disaster was caused by politics. The solid rocket boosters could have been made in one piece, without o-ring joints, but the contract had to be awarded to another state to get their vote for funding in Congress. That meant the boosters had to be made in smaller sections so the sections would fit on a railway car for transport to Florida.
Also there was huge political pressure to launch that day, when it should have been postponed until warmer weather.
The incidental clips that are inserted in these videos crack me up. At 4:22 "Investigators have learned that a faulty valve was the cause of the accident" - and the video clip shows ....! You can almost hear the conversation among the creators of the video (if there was more than one) "It was a faulty valve. Have we got a clip of a valve?" "Well, yeah - we have this clip of the valve rockers in a car engine with the tappet cover off." "Yeah... OK, that'll do! I don't suppose the valve that seals a spacecraft is much different."
yeah it gave me flashbacks of setting the valve clearance on my old Kawasaki.
I like how there is just random space flight footage from anywhere.
I was nine years old when this happened yet I still remember where I was when I heard the news, as if it happened yesterday.
I remember being in bed on a Saturday morning here in Texas and being awakened by 3 distinct booms. I jumped up and looked out my window thinking that a truck may have crashed. Found out a few hours later that it was Columbia.
Similar memories, I went up to my 2nd floor office to prepare to watch the televised landing and I got an ecited phone call from a friend in Dallas about how the shuttle had 'put on a great fireworks display' as it passed overhead. My heart broke. I began calling my news media contacts to pay closer attention, something very very bad may have happened. For a few moments it struck me painfully that aside from the crew, I may have been the single other person on Earth who had a clue what might have happened.
It's been proven the 7 astronauts actually survived all the way down till they slammed into the ocean.
And here people bluntly deny it. Truth? Forget it. The world is not even flat, it has a shit hole in it.
I remember that, we were shocked!
Nice videos also u like the voice it it perfect for you use it for for...your videos your vice is extremely comforting even though the stories are sad.🙃🙃🙃
I remember the Shuttle explosion; so terrible.
Correction on the Challenger portion of the video. The astronauts were not lost instantly as you cited in the video, investigation showed that several switches in the cockpit were activated concurrent to emergency procedures, including the personal oxygen switches which meant, several of the astronauts if not all of them, we're conscious through the breakup.
they actually died which the 'escape pod' impacted the ocean
@@andyman8630 There was no "escape pod" - it was the cabin that impacted on the ocean at a velocity of about 200 mph.
I don’t care who it is, that is heartbreaking!!!!
Very interesting on the rest, thank you!!!!
It's crazy how many little faulty accidents happen and cost the lives of astronauts.
Just goes to show, that scientists arent all as smart as they think they are ha
Nothing compared to the deaths of citizens that our government routinely enjoys. Example: COVID vaccine.
@@VashStarwind Do you realize how many people died during the advent of flight? How many people died because of "little faulty accidents". Thousands. And yes, scientist are WAY smarter than you,
@@900darmah Didnt say they werent as smart as me LMAO, just not as smart as they think.. Thats why all those accidents are from things they didnt consider lol.
The challenger astronauts were actually still alive after the explosion. It was the Inpact of hitting the ocean that killed them.
Yes, I remembered well - they crashed into the lake in Louisana. Rescue operation retrieved their all seven bodies from the wreckage in the lake, but they refused to show the bodies to the media.
@@timetraveler2518 Uh.... no. Debris from Columbia was found in Louisiana. There were only a few body parts (head, torso, foot) ever found of her crew. All 7 of the Challengers' crew were recovered from the ocean. Your comment is a conspiracy theory. Dead bodies recovered from ANY kind of accident are never shown to the media.
@@booklover6753 Thank you for your info. I knew about the Challenger disaster and the recovery of seven bodies in the ocean. I was dissatisfied with the news about the Columbia disaster of body recovery in Louisiana lake until you gave the detailed information. Thanks again! 🙂
Thrrtr were more shuttle miswsions after the Columbia disaster. The fonal hubble repair mission happened after columbia at least. I know that other shuttle missions were required to travel in the same orbit as the ISS incase of a need to dock and await rescoe for any emergency.
Thanks Linda...
Lamentable! Condolences. R.I.P.
You forgot to mention “Major Tom”…who’s lost out there on some alien planet, at least according to Bowie’s “Blackstar” video
He hooked up with Ziggy Stardust
It's scary how one tiny mistake can compromise everything
It is scary nobody tries to turn off gravity for a while at a launch site. Without that bloody weight on planet earth, you'd not need such a huge amount of fuel, burning just to get a huge gas tank into space. The real problem is gravity, and the fact we primitive humans still BURN our fuel, even though eeeeh equals Emma See Squared is promising us LOADS of energy, if the fuel simply disappears. But no, human beings are still in the Burning Man fase of evolutiom. You need to wait millions of years. But there is no hope at all. Mankind will keep being stupid. I dare you.
@@voornaam3191 True but, it's not as simple as it sounds
Excellent content! Very nice, good work! Thx
I subscribed to your channel
Linda Ham still continues to enjoy a flourishing career at NASA and even later obtained a master's degree on NASA's tab. Some things are difficult to explain.
Thanks for ur content Destiny, keep it up
man after reading all the comments I'm not even gonna watch the video. Thanks for the heads up on how off the are on there info.
I remember watching the launch of challenger, so terribly sad x
This video is totally out of order. They knew the 'O' rings were below their temperature and this was discussed at the highest level. Due to the media and financial constraints this advice from a top scientist was ignored. I often wonder what the definition of manslaughter is.
The shuttle program did not end after the loss of the Columbia. After the investigation was over, the remaining shuttles resumed flying with new procedures to use cameras on the shuttle arm to check the tiles and missions to the ISS did a slow flip to allow people on the ISS to visually check the wings and bottom of the shuttle to verify the integrity of the tiles.
I always felt bad for the engineers who tried to stop or delay the launch of Challenger but pressure from above overruled their concerns. Some claim that this pressure went all the way to Reagan. I was watching the launch of Challenger live when it exploded. I kept hoping to see parachutes coming down but, alas, that was not to be.
RIP to all the lost space flyers, including Vladimir Komarov, who was alive all the way to the massive impact with the ground.
And the shuttle program did shut down. Just years later. So. It ended AFTER the Columbia disaster. Oh yes it did. But not the way you think about it.
Keep up the amazing space videos!! U have no idea how much my husband n I enjoy watching ur videos! 😻🪬
I watched the Challenger launch from Palm Beach. I saw it break apart: It was a horrific sight.
Nice going, Linda Ham.
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
The Shuttle was designed to be able to launch from Vandenberg AFB in California, which experiences temperatures significantly colder than those at KSC on that day.
The Shuttle's flight rules stated "In no case was the space shuttle to be launched if the temperature was 35 °F (2 °C) degrees or colder". After looking at solid boosters that flew previously, and seeing problems with the o-rings, Morton-Thiokol made a "recommendation" of no launch below 53 degrees F. (This is the "recommendation" that was waived by Thiokol on the morning
of the launch). Flight STS-8 (Challenger) burned the o-ring bad enough that it would have run only a few more seconds before burning through like STS-51. It was close.
"which experiences temperatures significantly colder than those at KSC on that day." -- True, which is why VAFB launches would be using a new model SRB, and a stronger SSME.
Its always re entry that is the problem That must have been so traumatic for the rescue squad who found those poor cosmonauts RIP spacemen
Such a tradagy 😢 much respect xx r.i.p. ....much respect
Some say that Yuri Gagarin was not the first man in space after all, just the first man to safely return _from_ space.
Some have been saying that since before his flight, and there was enough secrecy in Moscow to realize it might have been true. It took years to work through the possibilities and the sources and the slow leakage of internal documents, but by the 1990s it was clear those stories had been spurious. It was my first major 'Soviet space secrets' research project.
I wouldn’t mind being lost in space as long as the view is cool
7:35 Unfortunately the astronauts were not lost instantly. They were lost several minutes later upon the Atlantic ocean impact at over 200mph.

Columbia wasn’t the last shuttle mission.
Being lost in space is a hell standard punishment..
Lonely and lost in space are not a hell standard punishment. I love being lost in space because I never had a friend all my life on Earth's strange planet. The Robinson family, Doctor Smith, a robot, and Jupiter 2 survived lost in space. They were resourceful people to survive successfully on extraterrestrial alien worlds somewhere in space.
Still painful to watch all these years later.
Columbia was far from the last shuttle but changes were made after her breakup. Namely, a robotic arm was installed on all future shuttles in order to inspect tiles for damage.
So, who are those three men that lost in space?
they've actually lost more than that but Russia doesn't export nasties they only export successes. I imagine other countries will probably follow Russia's lead in this regard.
Those three men named Darth Vader, Han Solo, and Luke Skywalker were lost in space. They were killed by WOKEism and anti-white racism from leftist Hollywood media.
There is no one lost in space (ie, floating around). No American has actually did in space. All died below the Karman Line. The Soyuz 11 is the only fatality in space.
@@leecowell8165 They have lost 4 during space missions which is the same as NASA if you exclude the space shuttle.
The reason the cosmonauts in the Soyuz did not wear space suits, as previous crews had, was so three of them could be crammed into a two-cosmonaut area. At the time, both the U.S. and USSR were in a race involving who could do the most, and in this case the Soviets wanted to be first with the number of crew members. A larger ship wasn't available yet, so they took a chance using the two-man Soyuz. Three brave men paid the price.
There were lots of space missions flown with three crewmen prior to this one. Seems to me the Soviets flew a three cosmonaut crew in the mid-sixties. All of the Apollo flights had three man crews. The first was Apollo VII in 1968, three years before the mission described in this video.
You are as ill informed as this Tuber. There were 4 Soyuz 3 man missions and 8 Apollo 3 man missions before the Soyuz 11 flight. There wasn't a "larger ship" being designed. Get your facts straight before you flap your mouth.
@@gordonbergslien30 Yes; the Voskhod missions were actually flown in Vostok capsules with the ejection seat removed, and couches placed in sideways. For the Voskhod 1 flight, the three cosmonauts didn't wear spacesuits, and there was no escape system. for Voskhod 2, the two cosmonauts did wear spacesuits, and one of the couches was removed to make way for the airlock to allow Alexei Leonov to exit the craft without having to depressurize it. Neither flight had any sort of escape system. The reason the first Soyuz cosmonauts didn't wear spacesuit was because the designers thought they were redundant, that a shirtsleeves environment would be sufficient, and if there any spacewalks to be made, they could use the orbital module for a combination staging area to don/doff the spacesuits, and as an airlock.
RIP legends...
Very interesting and yes! Very Brave men and women 👍
Linda ham killed those astronauts.
Stan Baloney can save 'em though. No problem.
It's so sad to learn that one miner human mistake can cause many lives. So space travel is not easy as we think, reaching space is one thing but traveling in space is another problem humanity face. Space is not as empty as we think, there are many dangerous things that can kill us or any organics, for example sunlight; it's not just light but also contains high energy particles that can kill. We are smart but not smart enough yet to travel in space.
"space travel is not easy as we think" I pretty sure no one thinks that. Ever heard the expression "rocket scientist?" It's right there next to "brain surgeon."
@@princeofcupspoc9073 eeeh some people make us believe the trip to Mars will be an easy ride for example, I think about Elon Musk, and many, many science documentaries speaking about the "colonization of Mars" or space travel in general. They nee to sell their programs so many people want to make us believe humanity has mastered space travel already.
This is the first I've become aware of these Cosmonauts losing their lives. Granted I was 11 back then but had watched the US space launches since I was nine years old. I wonder if there was much coverage on US television of this incident.
Good job director! Don't bother to try and ways moch those who try to help
Want to play eventually you will pay the piper. Can’t wait to see what happens with the first mission to Mars….
There has already been an astronaut killed in preparations for that misson.
"Yeah! Starship is flying great, and we're almost to Mars! We're havin' a great time. Wish you werpshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshsht ".
this video was posted one minute ago
6:25 It is technically incorrect to say that the shuttle 'exploded'. Explosion is what one would expect if the evaporating hydrogen caught fire. Instead the cryogenic liquids escaping quickly, after aerodynamic forces disrupted the cryogenic tank, created a mist of frozen gases and ice crystals, giving the impression of an explosion. Also, we now now that the the crew module wasn't destroyed instantly but fell to the ocean at a velocity no one could have survived. The SRBs also did not explode but veered away after the disruption of the main vehicle and you can see that in the video.
I remember seeing the Space Shuttle Columbia exploding. It was horrible. It's something you never forget. I can't begin to know what the families of these astronauts were going through. It was a terrible loss. I'm just glad that they didn't suffer when they died. And the Space Shuttle Challenger. What a horrible loss.
Unfortunately, it didn't explode - it broke up. And we can't say they didn't suffer - though we can hope unconsciousness came quickly. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer on a Sunday.
Challenger was the one that tore apart during launch while being televised. There was no TV coverage of Columbia's destruction.
@@JamesOberg Who said they saw it on TV? Plenty of Americans, especially in Texas, could see Columbia break up with their names eyes.
@@colekimball4945 == Indeed they could. A friend of mine in north Texas called me minutes after it passed over him and described it. And there were a few photographs. But it was not televised live like Challenger had been.
@@JamesOberg Yeah, I'm from near Waco. I didn't see it but I know folks who did. Debris was all over East Texas.
