There was a good Freakonomics podcast about an engineer that warned them that it was risky to launch because the O-Rings had not been tested anywhere near that low of a temperature. They thought there was too much riding on the launch to delay it again, so they went forth anyways. Unfortunately he was correct. A tragedy that could have been avoided.
