 Rogers William
William P. Rogers was chair of the presidentially-mandated blue ribbon commission investigating the Challenger accident in January 1986.
It found that the failure had resulted from a poor engineering decision, an O-ring used to seal joints in the Solid Rocket Booster that was susceptible to failure at low temperatures, introduced innocently-enough years earlier.
Rogers kept the commission's analysis on that technical level, and documented the problems in exceptional detail.
