Speakers included retired Admiral Hal Gehman, who chaired the accident investigation board, and Wayne Hale, a former Space Shuttle Flight Director and program manager. Admiral Gehman also talked about the origins of the shuttle’s design, which was required in order for it to retrieve U.S. spy satellite film. On February 1, 2003, the Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated upon reentry into the Earth’s atmosphere resulting in the death of all seven crew members.
