Slovenčina:STS-107 bola poslednou misiou raketoplánu Columbia. Cieľom letu boli predovšetkým experimenty v mikrogravitácii. 1. februára 2003, počas pokusu o pristátie, keď kvôli poškodeniu tepelnej ochrany na krídle do raketoplánu vnikla žeravá plazma a spôsobila jeho deštrukciu, zahynuli všetci siedmi členovia posádky. Príčinou poškodenia tepelného štítu bol kus izolačnej peny, ktorý odpadol z externej palivovej nádrže počas štartu raketoplánu.
