Lecture

15 years ago, the loss of the Columbia was a shock to NASA and the world.  Damaged during launch and breaking up on its return home, seven astronauts lost their lives. Focus on the decisions and events that caused the accident and the results of the investigation afterwards will be presented.   Finally, we will answer a critical question – could the crew have been saved?
