Following the 1986 Challenger shuttle disaster due to a failed O-ring, the impact of air temperature on the the probability of at least one primary O-ring failure was analyzed from data from previous flights using a logit model. The analysis found that the probability of failure increased dramatically as temperature decreased.
This Demonstration fits the failure data to logit and probit models and shows the two fits with the data and the difference between the two fitted models at the measured temperatures.
