It took the European Space Agency 10 years and $7 billion to produce Ariane 5, a giant rocket capable of hurling a pair of three-ton satellites into orbit with each launch and intended to give Europe overwhelming supremacy in the commercial space business. All it took to explode that rocket less than a minute into its maiden voyage last June, scattering fiery rubble across the mangrove swamps of French Guiana, was a small computer program trying to stuff a 64-bit number into a 16-bit space. /ariane.html 1996 James Gleick Columbia and other space shuttles have a history of computer glitches that have been linked to control systems, including left-wing steering controls, but NASA officials say it is too early to determine whether those glitches could have played any role in Saturdays shuttle disaster. … NASA designed the shuttle to be controlled almost totally by onboard computer hardware and software systems. It found that direct manual intervention was impractical for handling the shuttle during ascent, orbit or re-entry because of the required precision of reaction times, systems complexity and size of the vehicle. According to a 1991 report by the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, sequencing of certain shuttle events must occur within milliseconds of the desired times, as operations 10 to 400 milliseconds early or late could cause loss of crew, loss of vehicle, or mission failure. /softwaretopics/software/story/0,10801,78135,00.html After the hydraulic line on their V-22 Osprey aircraft ruptured, the four Marines on board had 30 seconds to fix the problem or perish.
