Didn’t a related disaster occur that was related to this incident?
As I recall, NASA halted the shuttle program but the company chosen that supplied the solid rocket booster fuel kept on producing the fuel. A tremendous stockpile of the volatile compound built up over time- and it was stored quite poorly.
Pepcon. 4500 metric tons of the perchlorate base.
