    The investigating accident board determined the cause right away so I left. The rest of the committee stayed to live off Uncle Sam in an expensive hotel with expensive meals. @BILD @lemondefr @TIME @NEWSweek @NBCNews @FoxNews @ABC @Williams @NewYorker @nytimes @washingtonposthttps://twitter.com/GenChuckYeager/status/1089922299199926272 …

    Jan 28, 1985: I was one of the accident investigators. NASA knew there were serious problems but launched anyway. @NASA wanted publicity & the press was leaving after waiting a couple days. Well, they got their publicity. #Challenger #Challengeraccident https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4JOjcDFtBE …

        I remember you telling me that last year when I asked about Professor Feynman's addendum to the Rogers Report.

        Wasn’t Armstrong on that board as well? Was it a collegial interaction between the members? Or was it a lot of strong egos? Was NASA trying to influence the outcome?

        All they have said is at least some survived initial explosion. Nothing else has ever been said out of respect for the families, as it should be.
