Space Shuttle Columbia $76.47 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Space Shuttle Columbia (NASA Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV102) was the first spaceworthy Space Shuttle in NASAs orbital fleet. First launched on the STS1 mission, the first of the Space Shuttle program, it flew a total of 27 times before being destroyed during reentry on February 1, 2003 on the STS107 mission (its 28th), killing all seven crew members aboard. Its destruction, followed by the subsequent independent investigation into its cause, has led NASA to the decision to retire the Shuttle orbiter fleet in 2010 in favor of the Orion spacecraft, an Apolloderived spacecraft that will serve as the backbone for the upcoming Constellation Program.

Cute. Space Shuttle Columbia just might have been saved by a horse’s ass! (I’m not being serious) NASA underestimated the overpressure wave generated by SRB ignition. On the first launch this pressure wave damaged or destroyed 164 heat shield tiles. The same pressure wave stressed the hydraulics to the point where they should have failed, but by some miracle they didn’t. If the hydraulics had failed, we would have lost the shuttle and possibly the crew. Fatter SRBs probably meant higher thrust SRBs with a stronger overpressure wave that would have destroyed the hydraulics, so a horse’s ass saved the space shuttle!
