This is probably a dumb question--but is there an equivalent of a "black box" on the Columbia that could yield information?

No Cockpit Voice Recorders exist. Even if they did, the ability to recover data from them would be extremely difficult (debris will be quite small).

I was just hearing this talked about on TV. They said when you see all those people sitting there at NASA with all the computers and control panels etc. That is equivalent to a black box. They record everything that is going on.
