美国国家航空航天局 （NASA）宣布1月28日为官方悼念日，以纪念在阿波罗1号起火、挑战者号与哥伦比亚号爆炸这三起重大事故中牺牲的航天员。当日，NASA官网上发表了美国总统奥巴马的纪念文章。全文如下：
| Thirty years ago today, our country was shaken by the loss of Challenger and with it, the lives of astronauts and payload specialists Christa McAuliffe, Gregory Jarvis, Judith Resnik, Francis Scobee, Ronald McNair, Michael Smith, and Ellison Onizuka. | 30年前的今天，在那场举国震惊的事故中，我们失去了挑战者号及其上搭载的七名宇航员和专家——克里斯塔·麦考利芙、格里高利·杰维斯、朱蒂丝·雷斯尼克、弗朗西斯·斯科比、罗纳德·麦克奈尔、迈克尔·史密斯和埃里森·奥尼佐卡。 |
| For centuries, humankind has looked to the sky to set the stage for a future that redefines our limits and a reality where anything is possible. Reaching for those unbounded heights has been fundamental to developing our national character -- helping us find the capacity to lead the human race to the next frontiers of discovery and the wisdom to use that knowledge for the better. | 千百年来，人类对天空的仰望，让我们得以不断突破极限，成就了充满无限可能性的今天。在对无垠太空的探索中，我们的国民性格逐渐成形，拥有了在全人类的发现领域中成为领头羊的能力，和更妥善地运用知识的智慧。 |
| We must never forget the courageous Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice to expand the boundaries of understanding. They knew the risks, and still chose to put their lives on the line so that future generations could lead lives made better by advances in science, technology, and a deeper understanding of our universe and humanity's place therein. As we honor their legacy and that of every hero who lost their life helping America touch the stars, we remember President Reagan's words that fateful January day in 1986: "The future doesn't belong to the fainthearted; it belongs to the brave." | 我们必不能忘那些勇敢的美国人，他们为拓展人类的认知领域做出了终极牺牲。他们深知其中的风险，却仍然奋不顾身，为了科学技术能够向前迈进，人们能够更深刻地了解宇宙，以及身处其中的人类的位置，从而让子孙后代过上更好的生活。这些人，以及每一位献出生命、令美国得以触摸星辰的英雄，他们的精神令人敬佩。让我们牢记里根总统在1986年1月事故当天的讲话：“未来不属于懦弱者，未来属于英勇无畏的人。” |
| These brave women and men are forever a part of a story that is ongoing. It is a story that will bring human beings to Mars and out into our solar system -- and beyond. It is a story made possible by their sacrifice and heroism. May America always carry forward the bravery of those we've lost, and may we harness it to make today's impossibilities tomorrow's realities. | 这些英雄们的故事将永留航天史册，而人类探索宇宙的脚步将永不停歇——直至我们登上火星，探索星系内部，最终冲出太阳系。这个历程将因他们的牺牲和英勇行为而得以实现。愿美国能够始终继承和发扬逝者的勇敢精神，愿我们能够驾驭这种精神将今日的不可能化为明日的现实。 |
