      Very tragic and avoidable. But the human spirit for exploration endures

      I remember watching this happen in school. Being from New England and to have one of our own going into space was a huge deal.

      The Challenger was allowed to launch on quality deviations signed by business and government directors higher up. I’m betting the crew wasn’t consulted on the decision.

      The O-ring manufacturer said NO! They knew the rubber would become plastic (inflexible) below freezing, and wouldn’t be an effective seal. They’re objection was overruled.

      Welcome to big business/big government overriding science and engineering.

      It wasn’t an accident. It was a calculated bet that ended in nothing less than manslaughter. To my knowledge, those directly responsible were never held accountable for their actions.

      I was watching this in the library at elementary school with the rest of my class and other classes. We all watched it explode live. We were all initially confused, then the teacher said it was enough, and we had to get to class. It wasn’t until I got home from school that my dad told me what happened that I understood. So tragic.

      there’s a really good video on why big bird not going on board the challenger was partially responsible for this lol.

      I am not that big on conspiracies, but too me it is highly strange, that those who died , the same looking people with the same names looking exactly the same living only states away working in the same field of expertise or nasa related.

      what a coincidence isnt it !? Life be strange

      There is an excellent review of this in The Great Courses class Engineering Failures and the Lessons They teach by Stephen Ressler. Fantastic course overall and this lesson goes into depth about what happened. Made me mad all over again about how business overrode the engineers on the critical phone calls.

      We celebrate courage because most are dumb virtue signaling crowd parrots.
