Absolutely riveting. I could not put it down.
Even the technical descriptions and definitions were not difficult to follow, and in many cases, horrifying ng to understand.
The story of the Challenger, from the early days of the space program to the shuttle program is a fascinating read.
Anyone who remembers the ticker tape parades for John Glenn and other early astronauts, the walk on the moon and the horrific Challenger explosion, need to read this book.
It takes you through the years before Challenger and how the program got to where it was - who the outside contractors were for the rocket parts as well as who the administrators were, of both NASA and their contractors and how decisions were arrived at.
It is the story of a very brave man who chose to do the right thing and tell the story of what really happened the day before the Challenger went up and how the launch decision was arrived at.
Everything before and after the Challenger explosion is detailed precisely, chronologically and without shading.
Just a fascinating read.
Bravo to Adam H - I wish I could give this 10 stars.
