A failure of risk management

25 years ago today, the ultimate failure in risk management:

Challenger, STS 51



At the time, my family lived in Melbourne, FL, within real-time viewing of the shuttle flight path.  My wife and kids, in their school yard as always for a launch, witnessed this as it happened.  A real OMG! moment
