I understand your point but what is the mission control operative supposed to say and how to say it?

yeah, obviously a major malfunction...
Everyone sounds oblivious, I guess you don't fully understand the severity of something as its happening.

Thank you for your reply. I didn't think anyone would notice. It was a long time ago and I suppose we should let sleeping dogs lie. But I was pretty angry and disgusted about it at the time and I still am. I know what happened because I saw the original videos in slo-mo before NASA seized them.

It's depressing how unemotional they seem to be about it. Obviously a major malfunction?!

Check your facts - it was a failure of the o ring seal on the solid rocket boosters. The resulting flame caused the external tank to explode.

The shuttle Challenger blew up as a result of a leak in the external liquid fuel tank. The leak was between the oxygen and hydrogen tanks. Hydrogen, and probably oxygen, flowed back along the outer surface to the rear of the tank where it ignited. The flame propagated forward through the boundary layer until it reached the crack where a large amount of hydrogen and oxygen had leaked out. The resulting explosion destroyed the shuttle. |
