Summary
This document appears to be page 62 of a publication titled 'Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?', included in House Oversight evidence files. It analyzes the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster as a case study in communication failure and cognitive bias, specifically how engineers failed to effectively convey the ambiguity and danger of the foam strike to management. The text highlights how the focus was misdirected toward tiles rather than the leading edge of the wing.
