Covers show damp rippling, sticker residue, and is somewhat worn and soiled, The Columbia Accident Investigation Board was convened by NASA to investigate the destruction of the Space Shuttle Columbia during STS-107 upon atmospheric re-entry on February 1, 2003. The panel determined that the accident was caused by foam insulation breaking off from the external fuel tank, forming debris which damaged the orbiter's wing; and that the problem of "debris shedding" was well known but considered "acceptable" by management. The panel also recommended changes that should be made to increase the safety of future shuttle flights. The CAIB released its final report on August 26, 2003. Investigates loss of the Space Shuttle Columbia, STS-107, and its seven-member crew on February 1, 2003. Four parts entitled: The Accident; Why the Accident Occurred; A Look Ahead; and Appendices A, B, C. Concludes with recommendations. Appendices D, E, F, G, and H comprise the remaining 5 volumes (not present) and provide information on technical documentation and transcripts of Accident Board public hearings. This volume comprises the major assessment, conclusions, and recommendations. After nearly seven months of investigation, the Board has been able to arrive at findings and recommendations aimed at significantly reducing the chances of further accidents. Our aim has been to improve Shuttle safety by multiple means, not just by correcting the specific faults that cost the nation this Orbiter and this crew. Seller Inventory # 48972
