Abstract
Shortly after the Space Shuttle Challenger incident on January 28, 1986, IBM Federal Systems Division personnel were requested to formulate and be prepared to implement a data recovery program to access the information retained within the Shuttle's flight computers. These efforts began on March 11, 1987, with retrieval of the onboard computers from 90 feet below the surface of the Atlantic. Some of the problems of restoring sophisticated electronic hardware after several weeks of exposure to sea water environments are described using the Space Shuttle as a case study.ETX
