Space/Science » in reply to NASA 2 Release report on Columbia's Crew Final Moments

Sad but interesting read.

They've done well in sparing the families grief by not getting heavily into details. Also most aspects of the report are easily understood by the layman.

What I don't understand is- if they were aware of possible damage to the wing, why weren't they all strapped in with helmets on and visors down?

It may not have helped at time crew module separated but what if the breakup had occurred later on?
