Question 1:
Facts in the case with respect to engineering design SRBs design contained a catastrophic O- rings flaw Lack of test data for supporting launch expectations Poor orbiter design, hence could break when subjected to Aerodynamic. Facts in the case with respect to atmospheric conditions from the night before launch until the time of disaster Low atmospheric temperatures Aerodynamic atmospheric conditions. Glacial atmospheric conditions Question 2: Professional responsibilities that were neglected: Firstly, the vehicle used was not given certification to operate at low temperatures. It was not professional to allow the vehicle operate at such extremely low temperatures without certification. Continue reading...
