Digital Cameras Urged For Space Shuttles; Crucial Moments Could Be Monitored, Board Says

The Washington Post | July 31, 2003| | Copyright

Space shuttles should be equipped with digital cameras that can transmit high-resolution pictures of the orbiter and its propellant tank during critical moments in future missions, according to the latest recommendation of the board investigating the Columbia disaster, released yesterday.

The board said NASA shuttle managers should be able to examine a shuttle's large external propellant tank as it separates from the orbiter minutes after launch. In addition, managers should be able to monitor in real time the underside of the leading edge of a shuttle's wings and the heat-resistant tiles ...
