Reading the article a couple of posts earlier on the Abort to Orbit of Challenger, I thought I'd toss a little speculative question into the pot : Is it possible Challenger was experiencing sensor failures like those they found on Columbia ? Where the sensors on Challenger that reported the excess engine temps the same that were cracked on Columbia ? If one of these sensors had broken off and entered the engine, wouldn't it have caused more havoc ? All this _is_ speculation since we, unfortunately and tragically, no longer have Challenger to examine ... I'm interested in what others think, though. - Jonathan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Internet : jdeitch@umiami.miami.edu | "Good musicians execute ------------------------------------------------- | their music but bad ones "I'm a Time Lord.
