EP2 Mars or Bust Nov 22, 2016

Serious injury or loss of life threaten technicians working on the Mars Exploration Rover when a test procedure goes horribly wrong.

If they can't, the launch window closes and the mission will be delayed for two years.

EP3 Space Shuttle Shuffle Nov 29, 2016

Catastrophe beckons when gears controlling a Single Point of Failure Space Shuttle landing system are installed backwards. And, with the $50 Billion International Space Station running out of supplies, mounting pressure from world space agencies, and NASA attempting to Return to Flight after the tragic loss of Columbia, a shocking discovery that could have destroyed the Shuttle during launch causes NASA to cancel the historic launch, pull the Space Shuttle off the launch pad and "de-stack" for only the eight time in 30 years.

EP4 The End of Genesis Dec 06, 2016

A spacecraft freefalls from orbit smashing into the ground when its parachute fails to deploy. Can the multi-million dollar science mission be salvaged? And, a wrong turn ruptures a costly Space Shuttle "cold plate!"

EP5 Trains, Rockets, and Pains Dec 13, 2016

A harrowing space mistake leaves the solid rocket boosters hanging by a thread and places the unsuspecting public in the cross hairs of more than a ton of the most explosive rocket fuel on the planet.

EP6 Columbia Dec 20, 2016

The loss of Space Shuttle Columbia stands as one of the worst disasters in spaceflight history.

Synopsis

Amazing behind-the-scenes stories of NASA catastrophes and near misses, many unknown to the public. The science of exploration is imperfect - sometimes NASA must learn the hard way: Incorrect metric conversions, reverse installations, deadly chemical spills, and a near miss that could have resulted in a massive rocket fuel explosion that could have wiped out a small town - and almost did!
