NASA’s Day of Remembrance 2026

NASA’s Day of Remembrance 2026

NASA’s annual Day of Remembrance pays tribute to all members of the NASA family who lost their lives in the pursuit of exploration and discovery, including test pilots, the Apollo 1 crew, and the crews of space shuttles Challenger and Columbia. This year marks the 40th anniversary of Challenger.

On Jan. 22, 2026, we pause to honor their memory and reflect on the importance of maintaining a strong safety culture.
