Yahoo! News – NASA Identifies Foam Flaw That Killed Astronauts: “‘It was not the fault of the guys on the floor; they were just doing the process we gave them,’ Otte said. ‘I agree with the (accident investigation board) that we did not have a real understanding of the process. Our process for putting foam on was giving us a product different than what we certified.’ ”

Glad to see that they identified this, but if I was one of those guys this would kind of get me down a little.

    So it wasn’t the foam, but the process of applying it. How unfortunate that they had to find out the way they did.
