Space Shuttle Columbia

The Space Shuttle Columbia, launched on April 12, 1981, from Kennedy Space Center, was commanded by John W. Young and piloted by Robert L. Crippen. This historic mission marked the beginning of reusable spacecraft for human spaceflight. Columbia served as a cornerstone in NASA's shuttle program, paving the way for future missions. Tragically, the shuttle met its end during re-entry in 2003, but its contributions to space exploration and technology development remain vital. This vessel's journey shaped the future of both human space travel and aerospace research.
