Remembering Judith Resnik, who died #OTD in 1986 aboard #SpaceShuttleChallenger.

Judy wore this flight suit on her way from Houston to Cape Canaveral ahead of her mission on #Challenger #STS51L. She left it with her things in the astronaut quarters, and it was returned to her family after #ChallengerDisaster. Her family donated it to the Johnson Space Center Visitor Complex where it can be seen today.

TIL #GeorgeSantos was the only survivor of the #SpaceShuttleChallenger explosion.

Jan. 28 marks the 35th anniversary of the Challenger accident. Tune into the latest episode of the Rocket Ranch Podcast as we remember Challenger, the crew and their survivors, and how we carry forward the lessons NASA learned.
