Tekst achterflap

On January 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger broke apart seventy-three seconds after launch, killing all seven crew members aboard. This book examines the technical failure and the organizational decisions that preceded it, tracing how a faulty O-ring seal, cold weather conditions, and pressures within NASA and its contractors combined to produce a preventable tragedy. You will learn about the engineering warnings that went unheeded, the communication breakdowns between technical staff and management, and the subsequent investigation that reshaped safety practices in spaceflight. Generated by artificial intelligence, this book draws on publicly available records and reports to provide a clear, factual account of the disaster. It offers you a straightforward introduction to one of the most studied failures in the history of American space exploration.
