If there had been some sort of missile, the shuttle would have blown up right away. Instead, it looked like pieces just kind of started flying off of it and it disintegrated slowly.

If there had been some sort of missile The shuttle was too high for any missile to reach, and flying too fast for any missile to catch.

They were 39 miles up - traveling at 12,500 mph.
No way a hand held missle could have touched it.
