  2. #feynman's observations concerning #challenger, which were published in his memoir "What do YOU care what other people think", is worth being reread periodically. Probably all of us have been in projects where management was deaf with respect to grave technological concerns as it would have spoilt a good yarn that was told to the customer. Obviously, all these projects have the one inevitable outcome, since nature cannot be...

  8. Since everyone else is posting about #Challenger, I'll post something, too.

    Here's the coverage from Carnegie Mellon University's newspaper, The Tartan. Astronaut Judith Resnik was a 1970 ECE grad. Resnik Hall is named in her honor.

    I was in elementary school at the time. We had a snow day and I was with my dad at Loreski's Hobby Shop in Monroeville, buying supplies for a science fair project. We drove home in silence, listening to the news on KQV.

    Challenger: The disaster five people saw coming

    Forty years ago, the Challenger space shuttle disintegrated just after lift-off, killing its crew and changing the history of spaceflight. A small team of engineers tried to prevent the tragedy — but they were overruled.

  15. Schlüsselfaktor im Offensivkrieg

    Der Druck auf die Bundesregierung, der #Ukraine #Leopard 2-Panzer zu liefern, steigt im In- wie im Ausland. #Kiew braucht die Kampfpanzer für seine geplante #Frühjahrsoffensive.

    Vor der morgigen #Waffenstellerkonferenz auf der U.S. Air Base #Ramstein (Rheinland-Pfalz) nimmt im In- und Ausland der Druck auf die #Bundesregierung zu, der Ukraine #Kampfpanzer des Modells Leopard 2 zu liefern. Kiew plant derzeit eine Frühjahrsoffensive, für die es neben den inzwischen zugesagten westlichen Schützen- bzw. Spähpanzern (#Marder, #Bradley, #AMX 10-RC) neue Kampfpanzer benötigt, um die russischen Linien erfolgreich durchbrechen zu können. Als ein mögliches Ziel der #Offensive ist die Krim in der Diskussion. Der Oberkommandierende der ukrainischen Streitkräfte veranschlagt für die Offensive 300 Kampfpanzer, 600 bis 700 #Schützenpanzer sowie 500 #Haubitzen. Die ersten Kampfpanzer – rund ein Dutzend #Challenger 2 – wird #Großbritannien liefern; #Polen und #Finnland haben bereits Leopard 2-Panzer zugesagt. Während die Debatte noch im Gange ist, werden schon weitere Schritte gefordert: #Lieferungen zunächst von #Kampfhubschraubern, dann von #Kampfjets. Nur mit ihnen könne die Ukraine, heißt es in Kommentaren, „den Krieg gewinnen“. Die deutsche #Bevölkerung lehnt die Lieferung von Kampfpanzern mehrheitlich ab; Ausnahme: die #Wählerschaft von Bündnis 90/Die #Gruenen (1)

    (1) In der YouGov-Umfrage überwiegt nur bei den Wählern der #Grünen die #Zustimmung zur Kampfpanzerlieferung - und zwar eindeutig: 50 Prozent sind dafür, nur 25 Prozent dagegen. Bei den anderen beiden #Koalitionsparteien sind die Gegner in der Mehrheit - bei der #SPD nur knapp mit 41 zu 40 Prozent, bei der #FDP mit 42 zu 33 Prozent.
