From what I understand, they actually tested the impact of insulated foam on the tiles, and initially it seemed like it wasn't strong enough to actually punch a hole in the tile and cause damage, but when they switched up WHICH tile was impacted (from a standard wing tile to the corner tile that flowed from the wing to the main body), boom. Went straight through.
I can somewhat understand why so many wanted to keep the pieces they found, but myself would have wanted to give it up. Hey, if I found a gun or a body on the side of the road, I wouldn't even touch it!! Call those who will!!
Ironically, what happened to the Columbia is helping save the lives of the 2 astronauts who flew up to the space station aboard the Boeing Starship. Rather than roll the dice and take a chance that they'll nake it back home safely, Nasa advised to WAIT it out at space station for another proven space x vehicle to bring them back. Smart call.
Oh, I'm sorry. That's not the case now. The odds of something like that happening is high in a space shuttle program. There isn't one anymore. If you still have a chance, nothing should stop you from becoming an astronaut.
@climberis1 I think your thinking of the Challenger that blew up during take-off. It eas part of the teacher in space program. It happened 1986 whereas this one had austronauts from other countries.

Also once I was napping on the couch, apparently according to my mom I sat up and asked her what she was watching, when she told me she was watching the space shuttle land, I said to her “well it’s gonna explode” then laid back down and went back to sleep…she was watching the Columbia shuttle. All I remember was her frantically shaking me awake asking what made me say that!! After that she started calling me baby Edgar Casey and to this day she still brings it up and asks me what made me say that.

Challanger is the one that blew up on take off in the 80's. Columbia is what broke up over Texas in 2000's. I was thirteen years old. Went outside that morning and saw it happen in real time.

Where's the purple plasma impact? We all saw it live and that guy in SF got a pic of it on his Nikon (later collected by NASA). The shuttle didn't re-enter already on fire.
@@ollierobin I was 3. I probably did but I ain’t old enough to remember it. The technology to effectively edit things out of videos like this didn’t exist at the time though. I highly doubt if what you’re saying occurred did, that it took them 20 years to do it and somehow not a single trace of the original footage can be found anywhere.
What? If anyone wanted to damage the shuttle, they wouldn't use a plasma blast with color to it, they would just fire an extremely powerful laser at it for half a second. But, the more likely scenario is that it caught fire, and fell apart. All shuttles when they re-enter are essentially surrounded by fire to begin with, that's why there's heat shielding. If you see a car crash on the highway, do you think someone fired a railgun into someone else's suspension, or did they just crash their car accidentally? Life isn't like the Truman Show. The universe is largely deterministic, but it doesn't have hollywood directors and evil Bond villains using superweapons to create manufactured disasters. That exists for some events, but this was not one of them.
I had come home from Lubbock that weekend to my parents house in Fort Worth. I was sleeping in the back Rec room of their house and was just kind of laying there half awake when all the windows in the house shook and rattled a couple of times. I really didn't think much about it because they had a lot of loose windows and I thought that a door had slammed. Turns out, it was a sonic boom from debris going overhead.
@@meganoob12 Which is irony even more because we dropped a few nukes on them and also blew them to bits. It's possible they bought the advertising space on purpose. You never know.
The guys that do the landing telemetry suggested that the landing should be as per normal. They knew of the damage and had the opportunity to set the craft to a position where there would be minimal burn on the left wing. They failed to do this, and I suspect that NASA has covered up more lies to keep the space program running. I feel for the crew and their family.
Mission control knew there was the possibility it would happen, they never told the crew. You can see the tension on their faces . Blaming it on the fact there was an israeli astronaut in this video makes me sick to my stomach.
@@mystics1ay3r17 it is after 9/11 man its just American pretty much… its another form of racism towards a practice based on fear and anxiety and sadly it does…
As soon a crew lost contact, there is a close-up video of Columbia, full of holes, peices missing and decommisioned before re-entry. That video is now missing from the internet. I think it is relevant that is was flying in prohibited air-space, attempting to cross a polar orbit it knew it wasnt supposed to.
The shuttle never achieved an altitude higher than 62 miles above the ground. The Air is too thin to support the Flight of anything. The pilot of the Columbia Shuttle allowed the shuttle to glide down too fast to make it appear that it was coming from space. He didn't have to do that.
On February 1, 2003, Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated as it reentered the atmosphere over Texas and Louisiana, killing all seven astronauts on board. It was the second Space Shuttle mission to end in disaster, after the loss of Challenger and crew in 1986.
WOW! If you don't know, DON'T POST!! 1981 was Columbia's first flight. The Challenger disaster was in 1986 and that was BEFORE the Columbia burnt up on re-entry.

op, why would they be doing manned shuttle missions in the first place then?
As soon a crew lost contact, there is a close-up video of Columbia, full of holes, peices missing and decommisioned before re-entry. That video is now missing from the internet. I think it is relevant that is was flying in prohibited air-space, attempting to cross a polar orbit it knew it wasnt supposed to.
That was made up for a show that reenacted the breakup. There's no real close up views.
That was a fake .
@@da40flyer You are dreaming. The movie Sandra Bullock stared in came years after
Democrats fault
Actually it was trumps fault according to the democrats
For a piece of insulation foam hitting a carbon-carbon heat shield? I didn't even know american politicians were sophisticated enough to do that.
George Bush was president when it happen.
No. Russians fault!
The shuttle never achieved an altitude higher than 62 miles above the ground. The Air is too thin to support the Flight of anything. The pilot of the Columbia Shuttle allowed the shuttle to glide down too fast to make it appear that it was coming from space. He didn't have to do that.
It wasn't a GD explosion it broke up!
Safed jhoot... White lie.. 👀👀💀🦢✌👈👀
What the heck are you rambling about?

12 April 1981 - not 2003
On February 1, 2003, Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated as it reentered the atmosphere over Texas and Louisiana, killing all seven astronauts on board. It was the second Space Shuttle mission to end in disaster, after the loss of Challenger and crew in 1986.
Except no. That is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT event...
It definitely was 2003
That was Columbia's first flight, not its last.
WOW! If you don't know, DON'T POST!! 1981 was Columbia's first flight. The Challenger disaster was in 1986 and that was BEFORE the Columbia burnt up on re-entry.
