It's been 32 years since the space shuttle Challenger exploded 73 seconds after takeoff.
McCauliffe was chosen from 11,000 educators to be the first teacher in space, where she would film lessons to be taught in classrooms across the country.
Grace George Corrigan, mother of the late Challenger space shuttle astronaut and teacher Christa Corrigan McAuliffe, looks at a display in the Massachusetts Statehouse in Boston commemorating her daughter's life.
Her lessons have been untouched until now, and the astronauts are planning to honor her legacy by accomplishing what she never was able to. The Challenger Learning Center, an educational center honoring the Challenger crew with 43 locations across the US and internationally (with one location in South Korea), will then share McAuliffe's experiments across the centers, in classrooms, and on the center's website beginning this spring.

High school teacher Christa McAuliffe rides with her children, Caroline, left, and Scott, during a parade down Main Street in Concord, N.H., in 1985.
Four lessons - on effervescence or bubbles, chromatography, liquids and Newton's laws - will be filmed by astronauts Joe Acaba and Ricky Arnold, then posted online by the Challenger Center, a not-for-profit organization supporting science, technology, engineering and math education.
The explosion was caused by a faulty seal on the rocket booster, which ignited the fuel tank, a government-appointed commission found during their investigation.
