From the Houston Chronicle:
It's been 10 years since the Space Shuttle Columbia
disintegrated in the Texas skies Feb. 1, 2003, while headed for a landing at
Kennedy Space Center. From the left (bottom row), wearing red shirts to signify
their shift’s color, are astronauts Kalpana Chawla, mission specialist; Rick D.
Husband, mission commander; Laurel B. Clark, mission specialist; and Ilan Ramon,
payload specialist. From the left (top row), wearing blue shirts, are astronauts
David M. Brown, mission specialist; William C. McCool, pilot; and Michael P.

I was working as a film deliverer to different stores in northeastern Wisconsin and I was by New London when I heard the news from NPR News.
At first, there was some hope the crew survived, but within a couple of hours, it was obvious that no one had survived the break up of Columbia.
