...full inquest into the death of the shuttle Columbia--the second of the star-crossed fleet of five to be lost in flight--will take months if not years. Investigators will be looking at everything from a loss of insulating tiles to an explosion in the fuel tanks to a structural failure in the bones of the ship itself, as Columbia juked and torqued its way through the atmosphere.
