{"product_id":"9781496218162","title":"Teacher in Space : Christa McAuliffe and the Challenger Legacy","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis newly revised edition of Teacher in Space tells the story of how McAuliffe graduated from her role as a much-loved high school teacher to occupying a seat on the veteran orbiter's tenth and last flight into space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn January 28, 1986, NASA space shuttle orbiter Challenger lifted off into the clear blue skies over Florida on mission STS-51L, carrying a crew of seven, including teacher Christa McAuliffe. Just seventy-three seconds into the launch, a massive explosion tore Challenger apart. \n\u003cbr\u003e McAuliffe's dream was to carry out science projects while in orbit around the earth that were to be telecast live to school students across the United States. Her dream came to a sudden and tragic end that terrible day. Nevertheless, that ambition to educate from space remained an inspiration to many and, in her name and those of the Challenger crew, manifested itself in the establishment of hundreds of youth education programs and institutes of learning across America and around the world.\n\u003cbr\u003e Teacher in Space is a remarkable story of renewed faith, cooperation, and hope for the future and of a dedicated and much-loved teacher who came to symbolize the best of human achievement.\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Nebraska Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48952223072491,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":45.68,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781496218162-1.jpg?v=1783112186","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781496218162","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
