  • The Space Shuttle Columbia disaster was a tragedy that took place on February 1, 2003. On its 28th mission, Space Shuttle Columbia broke apart during re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere, killing all seven crew members aboard. The disaster was caused by damage to the thermal protection system on the leading edge of the shuttle's wing, which was caused by a piece of foam insulation that broke off during liftoff and struck the wing. The damage allowed hot gases to penetrate the wing during re-entry, causing the shuttle to break apart. The Columbia disaster was a turning point in the history of the space shuttle program and led to changes in the way NASA approached shuttle safety and mission planning.

    It's amazing how much phenomenal mental energy that goes into every mission, they all make it look so easy until it goes wrong, and then for the rest of us outside the box, we realise a million things can go wrong, and it's impossible to guess them all

    I was in high school when this happened. I remember my dad and I were watching the reentry and even though we all didn’t know a whole lot the instant I started seeing the bits coming off of it I am mediately knew that something was wrong because you know the space shuttle isn’t supposed to shed pieces as it reenters the atmosphere.

    This situation was very different to the Challenger. The Challenger had good evidence of the risk. This one was already in the air when the issue occurred I don’t think anyone made any huge errors that caused this. This was just another thing humans learned the hard way.

    It's irresponsible to assume that debris hitting wing and not damaging heat res tile.
    Also having 60s computer systems equipped in a space shuttle flown in 2003 is pathetic.

  • @loganbaileysfunwithtrains606

    Important fact that this doc gets completely wrong, the shuttle crew never wore their gloves while operating the shuttle on launch or reentry as the shuttle controls were not designed for gloved hands and they also never closed the visors on the helmets as the suits would dump oxygen overboard into the cabin making a oxygen rich environment which was a fire hazard. I feel like that’s something they completely dropped the ball on as it played a factor in the death of the crew as the cabin depressurized during breakup

      CAIB report makes it clear that while it’s an important thing to change for future spacecraft, under no circumstances would it have made a difference for the Columbia astronauts. They suffered 5 lethal events during the mishap, and decompression only definitively caused one death.

    The NASA pdf covering many pages of what happened... The medical part must be horrid reading for those who really understand some of the medical terminology. It's grim reading. Even their flight suits were ripped off them by the brutal friction from the air. It kinda made me a bit mad.

      @@rekunta Unfortunately, they were in a different orbit than the ISS, and didn't have enough fuel to change orbits accurately enough to both allow a transfer of crew and avoid a collision. I'm not even sure they were equipped for a crew transfer, unless they were prepared to try a very risky spacewalk and use a Soyuz dock as an airlock. Still not sure where they would tether the Soyuz, but it's still better than dying in a fireball over Texas.

    The factual stuff is good. The main commentary, delivered in a voice quivering with emotion, is a loathsome and tasteless attempt to sensationalise an event in which people died. The events should have been related in a calm and objective manner: that would have been shocking enough. No Hollywood, thank you.

    Damn that! Mission control and all involved on the ground is to blame for what happened to Columbia! Total incompetence got those poor people killed! Even a no nothing like me would have have the crew check the condition of the vehicle before reentry to remove any doubt of safety just to be sure!

    • @JimMac23
      @JimMac23 12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The crew didn't have the spacewalk suits or the tether to do a spacewalk. They couldn't see the damage on the wing from the cabin. And even if they could see the damage they didn't have the tools or the aluminum to fix the wing. And the instruments on the shuttle and on the ground showed no problem before re-entry. So your points are not relevant to the situation.
