Fallen NASA Heroes Honored at Kennedy Space Center.

On Jan. 28, NASA’s Kennedy Space Center observed the agency’s Day of Remembrance with a wreath-laying ceremony at the Space Mirror Memorial located at the KSC Visitor Complex, which was dedicated in 1991 to honor all astronauts who lost their lives on missions or during training. It was one of several events conducted around the agency in tribute to the crews of Apollo 1 and space shuttles Challenger and Columbia, as well as other members of the NASA family who lost their lives while furthering the cause of exploration and discovery. This year’s Day of Remembrance also coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Challenger accident.
