The Science Channel’s first dramatic feature film, The Challenger Disaster, staring award winning actors Bruce Greenwood, William Hurt and Brian Dennehy, will debut this weekend.

Based on Dr. Feynman’s book What Do you Care What Other People Think, the film will follow Feynman’s efforts to discover the cause of the shuttle’s explosion and expose the truth behind the disaster.

The Challenger Disaster will air Saturday November 16th at 8 P.M. CST on The Science Channel.
