NASA just released a report titled, “Columbia Crew Survival Investigation Report”. The final report is focused on the technical issues involved in the Columbia space shuttle accident in 2003. The report can be downloaded from http://www.nasa.gov/news/reports/index.html.
To me, the 2003 investigation report by the Columbia Accident Investigation Board is more interesting… the report can be downloaded from the same website above. The 2003 report covered organisational factors that contributed to the accident. As in most major incident investigation reports, safety culture was highlighted as a key contributor. The investigation board also highlighted the relationship with the Challenger accident. Very interesting insights. Worth reading…
