...ciation.) also explained that the minor damage made to Columbia’s nose, caused an aerodynamic change to the shuttles pitch and roll, making it unaligned to the design’s true flight purpose. NASA also stated that Columbia’s onboard computer may have malfunctioned during the calculation of the shuttles alignment. Both problems still remain a mystery. The shuttle’s temperature was also a concern. Being monitored by NASA, Columbia’s temperature on it’s left side fuselage was four times greater than it’s right hand side, making the weight of the shuttle unbalanced for the breaking between the atmosphere and the lower body. According to NASA’s readings, the actual temperature raised an increase of 60 degrees Fahrenheit in five minutes. After contact with Columbia’s crew was lost, the te...
