Fascinating #documentary on the #Challenger space shuttle #disaster. Apparently #NASA withheld quite a bit of #information from the #public for decades.
While it was true the rubber O rings failed due to subfreezing temperatures, NASA ignored engineers warnings and proceeded with the launch. What isn't true is the #astronauts vaporizing due to the #explosion. Withheld #evidence showed not only were they aware, they activated #emergency air tanks and were passengers trapped in a cabin on a #terrifying high speed freefall which slammed into the ocean.
