Chapter 22. Group Think and the Challenger

Short Description

In 1986, NASA launched the 25th space shuttle mission with the space shuttle Challenger. Seventy-three seconds into the flight, disaster struck. The space shuttle exploded with millions of people – mostly school aged children – watching. Follow-up investigation showed that the decision making process resulted in not listening to concerns about the flaw that caused the explosion. This video shows a recreation to the decision process and how groupthink may have played a role.
