Description
These data are discussed in the first STAT0002 lecture.
A paper (Dalal et al., 1989), in which these data are analysed
with a view to estimating (retrospectively) the probability of a
catastrophic failure of the Challenger space shuttle under the
launch conditions on 28th January 1986 is used as a
worked example
for the
STAT0002 Meet your Professor ICA.
Usage
1
Format
A dataframe with 24 rows and 5 columns:
flight: the flight number.
date: the date.
damaged: the number of O-rings with thermal distress.
temperature: temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit.
pressure: pressure, pounds per square inch.
The first 23 rows contain data for test flights. The last row
contains the data for the ill-fated flight on 28th January 1986,
where the number of damaged 0-rings is missing (NA).
