On February 1st 2003 Space Shuttle Columbia broke up during reentry killing all 7 crew. Commander Rick Husband, Pilot William McCool,
Mission Specialists David Brown, Kalpana Chalwa and Michael Anderson
Payload Specialists Laurel Clark and Ilan Ramon.

The debris recovery operation also claimed the lives of Jules F. Mier Jr & Charles Krenek

20 years on, we've not only solved the problems and moved on to new spacecraft, but learned more about how to make spacecraft accidents of this type more survivable.

All of this information is published in the Columbia Accident Investigation Report results:

There's also a later Crew Survivability report
