In the twentieth episode of 5 Minute Disasters, we recount the tragic Apollo 1 disaster of 1967, a devastating event that claimed the lives of three NASA astronauts—Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger B. Chaffee. In just five minutes, we explore how a fire broke out during a routine pre-flight test, engulfing the command module and highlighting critical design flaws and safety oversights. The episode examines the impact of this tragedy on the Apollo programme and how it led to crucial changes that ultimately paved the way for humanity’s triumph on the Moon. Join us as we reflect on the lessons learned from this pivotal moment in space exploration history.
