This is a statue of the Space Shuttle Challenger. On January 28, 1986, the Challenger exploded just 73 seconds after lifting off. The 7 astronauts that made the shuttle crew died in the explosion. This statue is part of the memorial to one of Challengers crew, Colonel Ellison S. Onizuka. Ellison Onizuka was the first Asian-American to venture into space.
