The exact number of space rockets that have experienced catastrophic failures or explosions varies, but historically, there have been over 50 notable incidents since the dawn of spaceflight in the 1950s. This includes both launch failures and in-flight explosions. Some of the most well-known incidents include the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986 and the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster in 2003. Overall, while space travel has become safer over the decades, it remains a complex and high-risk endeavor.
The space shuttle went into space and studied outer space.
The space shuttle that was involved in the Challenger disaster was called the Space Shuttle Challenger.
