Space Tragedies
The first cavemen faced danger as they began to venture forth to explore the mysterious space beyond the caves. Early explorers visiting the "New World" and pioneers beginning to settle the frontiers of the American west had perils of their own. The brave souls who now travel into the unknown reaches of space also face hazards. Over the years, especially during the early days, many gave their lives in the pursuit of space.

When you sign up for this course, you will receive one lesson per day for 5 days.

During the course of these five lessons, we'll learn more about the tragedies that befell some of these heroes. You'll learn the stories behind the disasters and more about the people who were involved.
