NASA astronauts and their families are saying Beyoncé's decision to use audio from the 1986 Challenger disaster in her new song "XO" is "insensitive." "We were disappointed to learn that an audio clip from the day we lost our heroic Challenger crew was used in the song 'XO'," June Scobee Rodgers, widow of Challenger Commander Dick Scobee, told ABC News." The moment included in this song is an emotionally difficult one for the Challenger families, colleagues and friends." Beyoncé's song "XO" begins with a sample of former NASA public affairs officer Steve Nesbitt saying "Flight controllers here looking very carefully at the situation." A beep sounds, and Nesbitt continues, "Obviously a major malfunction." Then the song begins, Rolling Stone reports. "My heart goes out to the families of those lost in the Challenger disaster," Beyoncé said in a statement to ABC News. "The song 'XO' was recorded with the sincerest intention to help heal those who have lost loved ones and to remind us that unexpected things happen, so love and appreciate every minute that you have with those who mean the most to you." Beyoncé explained that she, Ryan Tedder, and The Dream included the sample as a "tribute to the unselfish work of the Challenger crew with hope that they will never be forgotten."
