NEWS SUMMARY: EDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1986
Date: 29 January 1986
The Shuttle Explosion Space shuttle Challenger exploded a minute and a quarter after liftoff from Cape Canaveral, Fla., apparently killing all seven astronauts on board. The space agency offered no immediate explanation for the accident, but suspended all future shuttle flights while it conducted an inquiry. [ Page A1, Column 6. ] Debris from Challenger's explosion was scattered so widely over the Atlantic Ocean that investigators may never recover enough of it to pin down the explosion's cause. But suspicions quicky focused on the craft's huge external fuel tank that carried more than 385,000 gallons of liquid hydrogen and more than 140,000 gallons of liquid oxygen at liftoff. [ A1:5. ]

The Shuttle Inquiry Officials began a broad inquiry in an effort to determine the cause of the explosion of the shuttle Challenger, history's worst space disaster. Ships, planes and helicopters searching a 50-by-100-mile rectangle of the Atlantic Ocean recovered hundreds of pounds of debris that might hold clues to the accident Tuesday that killed seven astronauts. [ Page A1, Columns 3-6. ] Searchers brought back 600 pounds of debris from the shuttle. A Coast Guard cutter's commanding officer, Lieut. (j.g.) John Philbin, described a calm, sunlit sea littered for miles with fragments of the shuttle and its rockets and fuel tanks. [ A15:1-2. ]

President Reagan today nominated Richard E. Lyng, who served as Deputy Secretary of Agriculture from 1981 to 1985, to succeed John R. Block as the 22d Secretary of Agriculture. If he is confirmed by the Senate, as is expected, Mr. Lyng, who is 67 years old, would be the oldest person to be sworn in as Agriculture Secretary. He would also be the first from California. In naming Mr. Lyng at a brief ceremony at the White House this morning, Mr. Reagan said, ''I have every confidence the farmers of this nation are going to have a sound and solid friend in Secretary of Agriculture Dick Lyng.''

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has temporarily impounded film owned by news organizations that shows Tuesday's launching as part of an extensive effort to gather materials that may help determine why the space shuttle Challenger exploded, space agency officials said yesterday. The film was in about 100 still cameras that were operated by remote control. Sixty of them are owned by the news organizations. The cameras were placed, with NASA's approval, on the grounds of the Kennedy Space Center near the launching site. The cameras were activated by remote devices sensitive to light, sound, or tremors in the ground.

When the Defense Department prevented the press from covering the first days of the invasion of Grenada in October 1983, editors erupted in anger, asserting that the people's right to know had been violated. Equally angry, military officers contended that the press could not be trusted to preserve security in the course of military operations. After the dust settled, journalists and officers began talking about improving relations. A special commission of military officers and former journalists recommended greater access by the military and greater restraint by journalists. Seminars have been held at the top military schools, giving each side a chance to present its views to the other, face to face.
