after take-off that the devastating event of the day began. Summary 0.06 milliseconds after lift-off, darkish-grey puffs of smoke began discharging from the right solid-fuel rocket booster. These dark puffs of smoke were hot gases of up to 6,000 °F emanating through…

Risk management primarily refers to the risk of life that an organization must account and conduct procedures for, implying that the risk is already present and not created by the organization’s decisions which grants a protective coating for the consequences of the risk to be hidden. Risks can be managed in one of three categories: preventable risks, strategy risks, and external risks; which are categorized based on the level of controllability an organization can take accountability for.…

sections of this report outline the events leading up to and during the failure, analyze the reasons behind it, and identify key lessons to apply to future space travel. DESCRIPTION OF FAILURE The Shuttle Launch system consists of three components: The Solid Rocket Boosters (SRBs), the External Fuel Tank (ET) and the Orbiter. Several different types of insulating foams cover a large part of the ET, which contains the cryogenic liquid hydrogen and oxygen that fuel the three Space Shuttle Main…

Application of Calculus in the Real World – Space Shuttle Launch Most people wonder what calculus can be used for in future career opportunities. For me this was easy to see because I knew what I wanted to go into. In the future, after college, I hope to go into the aerospace field and deal with things like planes, space shuttles and helicopters. At this point people, may not see the ridiculous amount of calculus I will use in the future, but in fact I will be using it daily. Whether it be…

Brandon is sitting at his crowded office desk with stacks of papers in the corner, and his lunch out in front of him in Wichita, Kansa, staring out the window watching the wheat as it delicately flows in with the slight breeze. Breaking news just came on tv, a hurricane is about to hit Texas and devastate thousands of people. Brandon automatically starts racking his brain on what to do. Brandon thoughts are all over the place. Should he take that long drive and go down to help, or should he…

Ionic bonds C16H32(s) → C16H32(l) London Dispersion Forces There was no conductivity observed for ionic compounds in the solid state but there was a high conductivity observed for ionic compounds as an aqueous solution. I would expect molten sodium chloride to conduct…

I was able to identify all the liquids in our sludge but only about half of our solids mainly because we only started working at a good pace towards the very final days of sludge. We didn’t identify any gases because there wasn’t any in our sludge. We only had three liquids in our sludge. We were able to get at least 10 ML. of liquid A and Liquid B. We had about 6 ML. of liquid C but on day #18, Monday, May 20, all our our liquid C was gone. I’m not exactly sure what happened like if the test…

mass of the 100 mL beaker from the mass of the beaker and liquid, the mass of the liquid was collected. Lastly, the density of the unknow liquid was found by dividing the volume of the liquid from the mass of the liquid. A small regularly shaped solid and an analytical scale were obtained for part 2 of Lab 4. First,…

problem existed when the solid rocket motor failed at boosting its engine because of the O-ring which is responsible of connecting the parts of the solid rocket booster, which was not designed to experience a very cold weather. Consequently, the problem became worse, and caused a hole in the solid rocket booster allowing flame gases from the engines in the rocket booster reach the outer petrol tank, and the relative boosting motor, which led to the separation of both solid rocket booster of the…
