This is the story about the crash investigation of the Space Shuttle Challenger. It is not a condemnation of NASA or the space agency's contractors. Rather, it is a testimony to the exceptional qualities and practices of the organizations and leaders that have produced successful and historic program management, and exploration of ways in which mangement failed, and a description of the standards of excellence needed for successful aerospace research and implementation. This book had to be written in order to restore the technical accuracy of the cause of theChallenger crash, and to honor th unselfish and reliable working people who made great space exploration projects successful but who were rarely recognized. The primary goal of this book is to offer a first-person message of hope, history, and motivation to the working class of people, and to the great explorers of today and of the future.
