The Shuttle Challenger Disaster of 1986 The Disaster of the Space Challenger not only affected the way NASA checked their space shuttle and produced them but it also changed the way that they were viewed. Despite the disaster, NASA has gone through positive changes still to this day. These positive changes such as the way they are viewed by Americans as a whole and also being able to make technological advances to improve space missions. The Challenger was expected to explore into space on…

literature review was to study about quality could mean the difference between excellence and disaster on a real life project. Therefore, the literature review discussed a space shuttle project the Challenger shuttle disaster. The first part of the literature review discussed the Vaughan’s (1996) analysis, which found the human errors are one of the main reasons of resulting the Challenger shuttle disaster. Also, by outlining Perrow’s (1999) Normal Accident Theory, it argues that complex…

On January 28, 1986 seven crew members were killed when their shuttle exploded mid-flight. 74 year old Ronald Reagan was the president at the time of the incident. Reagan was only one year into his second term as president. He was fascinated with the space program so he played a big part in the rebuilding years after the tragedy. Ronald Reagan became the 40th president of the United States in 1981, although he did not originally start out as a politician. He was born in Tampico, Illinois on…

After watching the numerous videos on the Challenger Disaster, it is obvious the management decision lacked communication, connected with a management system that allowed NASA to neglect safety requirements, leading to the cause of the Challenger disaster. The management decisions on the Challenger were rushed interested in the shuttle going into space. NASA concerned by the money aspect than the safety of the astronauts. There were obvious signs the shuttle would run into some problems such as…

Maria Rueda Mr. Bonanno May 23, 2017 CHC 2D0 Roberta Bondar- Geography ISU Roberta Lynn Bondar was an astronaut, physician, educator, and a photographer.

Marie, Ontario, Canada. As a child, she had always found space fascinating. Now that she looks back, she believes that this fascination has led to her career…

The NASA space shuttle Challenger exploded on January 28, 1986, just 73 seconds after liftoff, bringing a devastating end to the spacecraft’s 10th mission. The shuttle was in its 1st stage ascent at 46000 feet, Altitude when it disintegrated. The disaster claimed the lives of all seven astronauts aboard, including Christa McAuliffe, a teacher from New Hampshire who would have been the first civilian in space. The failure occurred due to a structural design flaw in the joint that engineers had…

dissipate the money on a program that could bring horrible death to someone? I am conducting the logos and some pathos by stating that thirteen Americans have died from spaceflight missions. The first tragedy was from the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster that occurred on January 28, 1986, leading to the deaths of its seven crew members when it broke apart 73 seconds after takeoff.…

later, similar problems would lead to another NASA tragedy, the loss of the space shuttle Columbia. Although the technical reasons for the Columbia’s destruction were massive system failures, the true reasons were eerily similar to the Challenger disaster, in that they were really the result of organizational failure. NASA was once again in the spotlight, as the organization was thoroughly examined and found lacking as a result of “organizational breakdowns” (Bolman & Deal, 2008, p. 191) and…

On December 7th, 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese forces. The next day, Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed the United States Congress with his memorable speech, the Pearl Harbor Address to the Nation. The goal of his speech was to urge Congress to formally declare war on Japan and rally American people to support the war effort. The main points of his speech were that the Japanese government launched an attack against Malaya, Hong Kong, Guam, the Philippine Islands, Wake Island, and…

is the day that the space shuttle Challenger explode 73 seconds after it lifted off from Florida’s Kennedy Space Center, killing the seven people on board, including a civilian school teacher. After an intensive investigation into the cause of the disaster, it was determined to have been the result of a faulty O-ring that allowed fuel to escape during the “burn” which resulted in the explosion. However, it was not a complete surprise to the flight engineers of Morton Thiokol that the explosion…
