On February 1, 2003, we lost our precious space shuttle Columbia on the STS-107 mission as the shuttle was returning to Earth. To commemorate this anniversary, I looked at an image of the shuttle approximately two seconds before it exploded in orbit. Inside the shuttle I saw the astronauts and they were not in distress at the time of the incident, and more importantly didn't suffer from the incident as it happened.
There are two astronauts sitting next to each other looking out a window. I have marked the location with a red line to make it easier to find. It was their final moment working together and representing NASA and the American people in space.
This is the source image that I used.
