@solareclipsetimer i don't know how they could have prevented the columbia disaster, besides halting the entire shuttle program.. which BTW they should have done, even before the challenger disaster

@solareclipsetimer that foam ramp as they called it wasn't the only spot shedding foam chunks. shuttle launches had foam coming from many spots, largely at random. the ramp area was one of the worse spots for losing foam, but even with improvements there the shuttle was still a deathtrap that could never have been made adequately safe. i'm glad it's gone for good.

@bees5461 sounds plausible, but raises questions.. like specifically why you say tony convinced stockton to design in-house, to fire all outsiders along with some insiders, in part to extend his employment, and that he was driving the design just as much as stockton. are those assertions based on direct testimony and evidence, or perhaps insider info, or are you presenting deductions based on your interpretations of indirect evidence?

@ahmetmutlu348 the viewport wasn't even rated to go as deep as the titanic. i have zero respect for stockton mush.
