**Physically:** it was the rubber O rings that iirc froze (very cold morning for the cape, I think it was like 38 degrees)

However, the issue was that NASA was aware of this issue with the O rings and decided to “go” anyway.

No one ever went to prison or anything either and it was basically gross negligence that cost those souls.
