The $1 O-Ring That Destroyed the Challenger Shuttle | Failure Analysis

On January 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger broke apart just 73 seconds after liftoff. Not because of sabotage or explosion, but because of a small rubber seal called an O-ring. This video explores the overlooked warnings, the engineering behind the failure, and the cold morning that turned a routine launch into national tragedy. As a materials engineer, I break down exactly how a common polymer behaved under extreme conditions and why no one listened to the data. 🎓 Subscribe for more engineering breakdowns, historical failures, and future materials innovation. — 🎥 Archival footage courtesy of NASA.gov 📚 Educational content under Fair Use #EngineeringDisasters #Challenger #FailureAnalysis #MaterialsScience #SpaceShuttle #O-RingFailure
