@amazeifystore: Cold didn’t freeze the O-ring. It slowed its response. 🚀 During Challenger’s launch, the right booster joint faced unusually low temperatures. When the joint flexed under pressure, the seal recovered too slowly, leaving less margin to keep hot gas out. Cold wasn’t the only factor, but it made a vulnerable joint riskier.
