Three highlights on this case study are:
1-The organizational structure was under NASA and it was a complex system over 24,000 employees. NASA had a long standing relationship with boeing for the construction of the orbiter.
2-In the early 1970's NASA planned to construct a way to expand their space destination and allow humans to travel to Mars!
3-The shuttle contained 230 miles of wiring, 2.5 million parts, 24,305 TPS tiles installed by HAND on the outside of the ship. The shuttle stood to be 184 ft tall weighing 4.5 million pounds and 90% of that was fuel. Those are amazing facts to me.
