The Shuttle Tragedy The Challenger explosion theories focus on the space shuttle's right-hand booster rocket, according to a source close to the inquiry into the accident. The solid-fuel rocket suddenly lost power 10 seconds before the shuttle exploded, the source said, and officials are inclined to believe that this indicates flame burned through the rocket's side and then through the skin of the external fuel tank. [ Page 1, Column 6. ] President Reagan mourned the loss of ''our seven Challenger heroes'' at a memorial ceremony at Houston's Johnson Space Center. Paying tribute to their ''brave sacrifice,'' Mr. Reagan pledged to honor them with a renewed national commitment to the conquest of space. Thousands of people attended the ceremony, including relatives and friends of the space shuttle's crew. [ 1:3. ] Cameras on the ocean floor were photographing and videotaping a sunken object to determine whether it came from the space shuttle Challenger. The search was made 40 miles east of Daytona Beach, in the same area where the Coast Guard Thursday found five large floating pieces of the shuttle. One fragment was a clearly identifiable section of the right side of the fuselage, adjacent to the crew compartment. [ 10:1. ] International A state of siege in Haiti was declared by President Jean-Claude Duvalier, who went on national radio to refute widespread rumors - and an erroneous White House report - that his 15-year-old Government had fallen and that he had fled the country. The erroneous information that the 34-year-old President had fled followed a week of tumultuous anti-Government demonstrations.

SOVIET UNION TO NAME 2 VENUS CRATERS FOR SHUTTLE'S WOMEN

The Soviet Union announced today that it would name two craters on Venus for the two women among the seven astronauts who died Tuesday when the space shuttle Challenger exploded. Tass, the official Soviet press agency, said the decision had been made by Soviet cartographers who have made the first maps of the planet. Soviet citizens have been especially struck by the deaths of the two women, Christa McAuliffe, the 37-year-old high school teacher who would have been the first ordinary citizen in space, and Judith Resnik, 36, who had made a previous space flight. According to The Associated Press, the Soviet newspaper Sotsialisticheskaya Industriya said the mappers of the planet had decided to name its features only for women, in keeping with the myth of Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty. The Soviet Union has given special emphasis to exploration of Venus with unmanned space vehicles.

A KENNEDY'S RIVALS FACE BIG PROBLEM

With eight months to go before the Democratic primary, most of the candidates for the Congressional seat to be vacated by Representative Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. face a common problem: how to overcome the celebrity status of a rival, Joseph P. Kennedy 2d. In a district once represented in Congress by the 33-year-old Mr. Kennedy's uncle, John F. Kennedy, the Kennedy name commands instant recognition from voters. Equally important, it has provided Mr. Kennedy, the eldest son of Robert F. Kennedy, with extra attention in the press and on television. This situation has made Mr. Kennedy, a Democrat, the front-runner, according to virtually all political analysts here. It has also led the nine other candidates to criticize the press for what they say is focusing on Mr. Kennedy, and it has forced each to try and depict himself as the second leading contender.

NEW SUMMARY SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1986
Date: 02 February 1986
The Shuttle Inquiry The computers and sensors guiding the space shuttle Challenger's flight appear not to have been programmed to detect flames burning through the side of a solid-fuel booster rocket, experts said. There were further indications that the booster was beginning to fail as long as 10 seconds before the shuttle exploded. Even if sensors had picked up the first signs of fire, safety measures built into the system to protect the astronauts would have prevented an automatic shedding of the giant fuel tanks that exploded. That command, the only step that investigators say might have saved the crew, could have come only from the pilot. [ Page 1, Column 6. ] Many children want to travel in space and seem resiliently enthusiastic about the space program, according to a New York Times/CBS News Poll. Though they were pained by the space shuttle explosion that killed a teacher who reminded them of one of their own, two-thirds of the children said they would like to travel in space, as against only half their parents. Adult enthusiasm was also clear; four-fifths said the shuttle program should continue. [ 1:5. ] International Demonstrations in Haiti were reported continuing and medical workers declared that 14 people had been killed and more than 70 wounded in the last two days of anti-Government protests. Seven of the deaths and most of the injuries occurred in Port-au-Prince, the capital, in demonstrations after unfounded reports that President Jean-Claude Duvalier had fled the country.
