He had many preferences and passions as a kid. He saw the ocean as a place to explore and this pushed him to look out for new ways to document it. Because of this he was able to take part in the Challenger Expedition. The Challenger Expedition was the first of its kind. It gathered all types of marine life that was just being seen for the first time. They learned the basics like what temperatures of the ocean in certain spots were and along with it all they learned…
Engineering Disasters Engineers have opportunities and jobs like no other. Marvellous buildings and structures are completed, and new inventions are being created and implemented into society around the world, all thanks to engineers. However, not all of these inventions and structures are entirely perfect; in fact, some imperfect structures are more popular than the perfect ones because of the impact they have had on the people and areas around them. These famous imperfect structures are…
NASA and the entirety of the space industry was not always a welcome place for women. From the beginning of the program until recent years, women were shunned or disadvantaged in the male dominated field. The American space program began after the launch of Sputnik from Russia during the Cold War period. This struck fear into Americans and resulted in the interest of launching not only satellites, but also humans, into space. However, no one had any way of knowing what conditions…
Chapter One “GET DOWN !” my commanding officer screamed We all scrambled into the trenches and I watched in horror as a football sized ball of lightning came smashing into his chest. He said nothing he didn’t even scream he just stared at me and fell over backwards, dead. screechers we call them, they came only a year ago in great big spacecraft 10 times larger than our own. We don’t know much about them where they came from, what they want and why us but we do know that they are killing us…
whenever an astronaut goes into space, they are subject to the unknown risks that space holds; like the Challenger accident made evident, space flight is not a routine practice. That theory could not be comparable to an astronaut embarking into space with the full knowledge of a pre-existing and very real mechanical issue that could be potentially fatal to the entire crew. In the case of the Challenger launch, there has been overwhelming evidence that the crew of astronauts were completely and…
numerous emergency signals from the instrument panel of the spacecraft. Sadly, all on board died in the disastrous explosion (Bolman & Deal, 2008). Many years earlier, the space shuttle Challenger experienced the same outcome (Bolman & Deal, 2008). Unlike the space shuttle Columbia, the space shuttle Challenger was ascending into space with a high school teacher as part of the shuttle’s crew (Bolman & Deal, 2008). After a short lift off, there was an enormous explosion witnessed by many…
source of entertainment. Live Have Been Lost. There have been multiply live lost while in or on many space missions. In 2014 alone 18 astronauts died, thats a lot for just one year. Fatal accidents happen often in this field of work like the 1986 Challenger space shuttle. Howell noted “73 seconds into lift off the shuttle exploded killing all 7 members on board. After this day the Challenger’s nickname changed from NASA 's greatest triumphs to their darkest tragedy” (par 1). According to…
We as humans have been obliged to adapt to our surroundings. Throughout the course of history, any changes in the atmosphere or on Earth in general have forced us to adapt and transform to withstand certain conditions. Whether it is naturally within our bodies or by the harsh climate causing humans to adapt, survival is necessary in life as we know it. Starting in the 1950’s, scientists, astronauts and aerospace engineers now had to consider adapting to the conditions of space. From a great…
launch will still be high. One of NASA’s requirements is to cut down cost due to the budget cuts in 1970s (“Challenger…”). The…
