  NASA went from “failure is not an option” to “there’s nothing we can do” which was really sad to see…

  My heart breaks 💔 for the Flight Director as well....his name, that helpless, pained face, those tears are forever etched in history, associated with the Columbia Space Shuttle Disaster. 😢😢

  I saw the exact moment it broke apart. I was standing on by back porch, Athens. Texas, telling my son to come inside. He was hitting his metal baseball bat against a wooden post making a loud sound that reverberated. &nbsp;I saw him hit the post once more and a huge sound again rang out. I saw immediately an explosion of white smoke in the clear January blue sky, and pieces of something falling down followed by white smoke. I yelled to my son who was 11 at the time and yelled at him, What in the heck did you just do?!!! Why that was the first thing I yelled out, I don&apos;t know, but it scared him.

  Bad things happen when people don&apos;t listen to engineers. RIP Columbia and it&apos;s Crew.

  Title is misleading. The rocket was not destroyed by foam. The orbiter was damaged by foam, which lead to breakup during reentry. The boosters and rocket engines worked perfectly

  Imagine being in a floating death trap and the cowards safe on earth saying nothing to worry about.

  On this day back in 2003, I spent the day with my wife’s family. &nbsp;Her 23 year old cousin had passed away from a long battle with bone cancer. &nbsp;It was a sad day for sure.

  They lied to the commander of the shuttle. They proclaimed they knew there was &nbsp;&quot;absolutely no risk&quot; when they didn&apos;t know any such thing. They should have told him every detail of what they knew and let him decide whether to proceed with more photos or whatever. He is the commander for a reason.

  I was in Dallas the morning the Columbia broke up. &nbsp;I was in the parking lot of Flight Safety International at the DFW Airport. &nbsp;I was late to ground school class as I stood there watching this machine break apart. &nbsp;I will never forget that horrible day.
