That was tough to read. It amazes me how the disaster conditions can be recreated to determine the exact stages of the disintegration.

Amazing read.

The most enlightening part for me was the analysis of how much the foam slowed down in 0.2 seconds after falling off. In that 0.2 seconds, the speed disparity between the shuttle (accelerating) and the foam (decelerating) amounted to over 500 mph. Wow.
