What aspects of NASA practice revealed in the aftermath of the Columbia disaster suggest that the changes sought in the aftermath of the Challenger disaster were not sustained?

The commission's recommended that NASA needed to restructure its management so that change could take place. NASA's management needed to tighten its control to establish higher safety regulations for shuttle safety. Both the Challenger and Columbia had safety issues that were either overlooked or brushed under the rug. NASA also had major communication problems before, during, and after both disasters. The lack of communication posed a significant safety issue for everyone in the space program.

What is the orbital maneuvering system engine?

The OMS engines on the shuttle (there are two) are two hypergolic propellant powered engines used by the shuttle during ascent, orbit and deorbit. During launch, the engines MAY be used after main engine cutoff to boost the Shuttle to a predetermined elliptical orbit. This is called OMS-1 burn. OMS-1 may not be required based on the payload and mission. OMS-2 burn is used to circularize the elliptical orbit that the shuttle first enters after launch. The engines may be used to change the shuttle's orbital characteristics during its mission. The engines are used to deorbit the Shuttle so that it may reenter the atmosphere to come back home.

How old is the hubble space telescope?

The Hubble Space Telescope was launched into orbit aboard NASA's space shuttle Discovery (mission STS-31) on April 24, 1990.The Hubble Space Telescope was originally meant to be launched in 1986, but the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger delayed the launch until April 24th 1990.The Hubble telescope is now seen as one of the most versatile telescopes in space. After it was launched in 1990, astronomers had a chance to change and improve the telescope through missions by astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle.
