conversations.value: Challenger (video game): The title character, Challenger, is an archaeologist who seeks to rescue the princess, Maria, from the hands of the evil boss, Don Waldorado, in the land called Pleasio Land.\nThe setting of the character as an archaeologist is an homage to the Indiana Jones franchise, while his name may be an allusion to Conan Doyle's Professor Challenger (best known for his appearance in The Lost World).\nThe scene in the first level where the princess is taken away by the villain is programmed as part of the level, and it is impossible to catch up to the princess no matter how quickly the player progresses.\nThe background music for this level is an arranged version of the well-known military march by Franz Schubert.

conversations.value: Do you know a plot for a book about NASA, Thiokol, Boisjoly entitled Challenger?
conversations.from: assistant
conversations.value: Challenger (1990 film): In the film, NASA managers and Thiokol engineers argue back and forth about whether the data Thiokol has is adequate to support the risk they claim.\nIn a teleconference, Morton Thiokol engineer Roger Boisjoly describes to the NASA team the soot from prior O-ring "blow-by" incidents on prior launches as "black", trying to communicate the severity of the malfunction, and says "it looked bad".\nA NASA director challenges him, asking "What does the black color mean.\n" Boisjoly, played by Boyle, is unable to put into words a concrete logical argument for concern about what is to him obviously a serious problem, and he just replies with something like, "I\'m telling you, if you\'d seen it, you\'d know it isn\'t good".\nThe NASA manager demands proof before he will ground the shuttle, and the call ends leaving Boisjoly frustrated and baffled at their attitude.\nUnable to prove their case with certainty, Thiokol managers cave in to direct pressure and reverse their recommendation, finally recommending launch.\nOn the human side, an interesting scene involves Christa McAuliffe talking with the designer of the "Teacher in Space" program, who enthusiastically describes to her his conception of a teacher performing experiments in space, while her students following along perform the same experiments on Earth and observe completely different results.\nHe envisions this capturing their curiosity to stimulate an interest in science.\nShe appreciates the vision, and the two have a very friendly, informal collegial conversation.\nHe describes the complexity and great amount of effort that has gone into developing the "Teacher in Space" program, giving the example that an original plan involved a magnetism experiment with iron filings, but that that plan had to be changed due to risks: "What if those iron filings got out of their container.\nThey could get into the equipment.\n".\nand cause a serious, dangerous equipment problem on board the shuttle.\nEverything has to be checked and planned and reviewed again; it\'s hard work, much harder than planning a regular daily lesson for a class on the ground.\nShe understands and appreciates this, and is happy and excited to be a part of it.\nThe end of the movie shows the shuttle lifting off from the launch pad.\nThe credits start to roll when the orbiter is out of frame.\nNeither the inevitable explosion nor an epilogue discussing it is mentioned.

conversations.value: Challenger
  Keller stifled the urge to glance at Savannah or Zoa, but did catch a glimpse of Bonifay in his periphery before stopping himself. "What's the biggest danger?"
  An understatement's understatement. A Frankenstein ship whose parts were never meant to work together, populated by people who were never meant to work together.
  Around them, more and more of the systems came on as Shucorion and the others pressed pads and buttons, flipped switches. Keller found himself abruptly aware of what was missing here, how sparse the crew really was—but did he want to take more people out into space and increase the loss numbers?
  The assurance, and the approval within it, had a dual effect on Keller, partly uplifting and partly dreadful. He communicated his gratitude with an expression as best he could, for he had no words that would work.

conversations.value: McCoy appeared behind Maidenshore, who was concentrating too hard on Uhura to hear the doctor roll out of the bed. "Have a drink, Billy," he said, and pressed a hypo to Maidenshore's throat.
  McCoy steered the suddenly groggy racketeer into the chair, where he collapsed in a daze, muttering, "It's not fair... nobody's ever fair to me... what happened to simple fairness?"
  Everyone, except Spock, was swimming in sweat. Even Spock had an unexpected sheen of amazement on his face.

conversations.value: Kirk smiled. He looked at the main screen, with its picture of the planet Belle Terre, a struggling but hopeful place, patched by tiny agricultural centers and growing factories, a frontier gold-rush town, determined to make good for itself and everybody back home.
  The starship slowly broke from orbit, her swan-shape gleaming proudly in the sunlight as she soared into the first established departure lane in this new solar system.
  Kirk smiled again at the half-built spacedock flickering like a Christmas tree hanging over the planet. In the boxdock, just now being pulled up to the umbilical mooring, floated the half-breed ship Nick Keller had conjured from scraps.
  And a repository, Kirk thought, for composite aspirations. He wouldn't know for months upon months whether that ship and her young master could keep a grip on the tiger he had by the tail.
  But for today, for Kirk and his own crew, the future was somewhere else. With Spock and McCoy on either side of him and Belle Terre pulling itself up by the bootstraps in front of him, James Kirk felt supremely complete.
