Space Shuttle Challenger & Columbia Accidents Engineers have designed the world we live in. They are the ones that research what is safe and what is not‚ they are the ones that bring blue prints to life. However‚ this power can backfire on them. Engineers are expected to create products that are safe for everyone. The engineer affects many people ’s lives. A single fault can possibly result in the death of a person.
