Though now retired, the space shuttle was able to 'capture' satellites for repair and replace then in their correct orbit.
The tiles on the space shuttle form a heat shield. The shuttle enters the Earth's atmosphere at high speed, which creates very high temperatures that would burn up the vehicle if it was not protected.

All of the bodies were recovered, but it was never determined how the astronauts died. It is assumed they died due to the impact with the ocean, and not the explosion itself.

1986, the same year as the Challenger Space Shuttle explosion.
The explosion of the space shuttle Challenger on January 28, 1986 was caused by the failure of an O-ring seal in one of the solid rocket boosters. The O-ring failed to properly seal, allowing hot gases to escape and ultimately lead to the explosion of the shuttle.
Yes - all of the crew remains were recovered when the Shuttle Crew Compartment was discovered during recovery operations in the weeks following the accident. It was determined from both evidence in the compartment and autopsies that several were still alive after the explosion (emergency oxygen canisters had been activated) and that they survived until impacting the ocean.
