Focuses on the causes of the failures and discusses how the engineering knowledge base has been enhanced by the lessons learned.
Discusses non-fatal anomalies which do not affect the ultimate success of a mission, but which are failures nevertheless.
Describes engineering aspects of the spacecraft, making this a valuable complementary reference work to conventional engineering texts.
