Answer:
Fifteen years ago, on the morning of February 1, the world lost 7 shining stars, and India - its first Indian-born woman in space. The tragic loss of the space shuttle Columbia that killed seven astronauts, including Kalpana Chawla, resonated far and wide.
The space shuttle was on its way home, intending to land at Kennedy Space Centre, when it exploded on entering the Earth's atmosphere.
Born in Karnal, India, on July 1, 1961, Chawla who was the youngest of four children, went on to become the second Indian person to fly in space after astronaut Rakesh
Sharma.
