Thank you. The fact is we know exactly what happens when NASA is not that thorough. The Challenger shuttle disaster was the result of a faulty o-ring (both bad specification for the unusually cold launch conditions and showing signs of deterioration). If it weren't for the incredibly rigorous process of both design and analysis of all things NASA, how many more such disasters would there have been?In NASA'a defense...
Here is a cool tribute to those who were lost in such incidents (even if it's not your style, it's worth it to hear the whole song):
(Incidentally, for anyone interested in music, recording, audio engineering, etc., there is a fascinating interview about that song here: http://www.songexploder.net/the-long-winters)
