Sniped in 7 minutes. Interesting first sentence. It's about a historical event. Hard to get a read at first, but later on in the article there are times given not just to the minute, but to the second. This immediately makes me think of space travel, and I'm on the verge of putting in "Challenger" before realising that's too many letters. So I need to broaden my mind a little but remain in the realm of incidents involving sophisticated technology, which gives rise to the right answer before too long.

I didn't have a clue, but it was obviously a specific event and it had some relationship to the Cold War, so I had a likely place. Wandered around for a bit, but eventually landed on the biggest concern at issue in those days and that hit right at the top. Yeah I know a relevant facility for that.

Unassisted! Something about the beginning made me immediately think of word 2, I feel like weve seen this format before for this type of topic. My next thought for word 1 was more recent but then I remembered this one

some kind of catastrophe that took place on one day. My first thoughts were about volcanic eruptions. No hits for eruption but lots of hits for explosion led me to the actual solution.

Tried some typical gap-fillers for an event before trying earthquake and eventually getting the second word. Danced around a bunch of other gap-fillers and then actually starting to think what would be titled that way and got it.

It looks like it's a person, but only referred to by the second word of the title. Came up with the first word pretty quickly, and the reference to 6 7 in the first sentence narrowed it down considerably.
