But the capsule the crew was sitting inside did not explode. It was ejected in the explosion, and remained intact. The brave crew members — Smith, Dick Scobee, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka, Judith Resnik, Gregory Jarvis and Christa McAuliffe — survived the initial disaster and "were conscious, at least at first, and fully aware that something was wrong," author Kevin Cook writes in the new book "The Burning Blue: The Untold Story of Christa McAuliffe and NASA’s Challenger" (Henry Holt and Co.), out now.

I’m not sure if they addressed this very topic in the Netflix docuseries, but I found this watchable although a tad drawn out.
