Shuttle panel urges broader input on launch decisions
The Challenger commission plans to require astronauts and contractors to participate in shuttle launch decisions to prevent NASA bureaucracy from stifling safety objections. After a nine day, four month inquiry, the panel sent a 225 page report to printers criticizing NASA management and demanding safety criteria in all flight phases. A safety board with power to stop launches was debated but not adopted, while a possible safety organization would participate in launch decisions. The report, due to President Reagan on June 6, emphasizes basic redesign criteria for booster joint seals blamed for the Jan. 28 accident and leaves specifics to NASA, Morton Thiokol, and outside experts.
