Thanks for that - will definitely be watching this one. There was a similiar programme shown a few years back, but this is definitely a new one

i'm not sure it will come up with anything new, there have been a few programmes highlighting the concerns about the 'o' rings before.

[Eric Mc]

I doubt it too - but many stories get told repeatedly in differing versions.

The cause of the accident was almost known before some of the wreckage had hit the water.

Dont want to spoil it.











But it blows up and they all die in the end.

[Eric Mc]

Damn - don't tell me the end of "Titanic".

[up-the-dubs]

Cheers folks. Forgot about that. And I even posted it on the last Challanger thread!

Cheaper development costs! You're not protecting against a design fault, but a failure.

N plus 1 and all that
