I recently read a book "What do YOU care what people think?" 
consisting of conversations with and text by Richard Feynman. 

He was a Nobel-prize winning physicist who was on the commission that 
investigated the first space shuttle disaster. 

He said that a Senator at the investigative hearings said something 
like, "When you're conducting an investigation, you have to have 
investigators. It's no enough to just take what people tell you. We 
did that on the Warren Commission and we're still being questioned."

The last part of the book is Feynman's report on the Shuttle 
disaster - an appendix to the committee's report. 

Feynman investigated. He also considered not just why that shuttle 
had exploded, but what it was about the way NASA did things that 
allowed the disaster to happen.

He pointed out a lot of flaws in how NASA did things.

His report is a perfect diagnosis of what went wrong in the SECOND 
space shuttle disater, too. 

Very sad.
