As the search for Space Shuttle Columbia debris continues, NASA working groups and the independent Columbia Accident Investigation Board, or CAIB, are poring over flight data that was downlinked by the orbiter during its last minutes. Preliminary analysis of the data indicates that plasma was present in the vehicle's left wheel well during its final moments, the CAIB announced Thursday. Plasma is a super-heated gas that surrounds the orbiter during re-entry.

This new site is maintained by NASA, and is located at http://www.spaceflight.nasa.gov/shuttle/investigation/index.html

The site brings together press briefing statements, images (pre and post-crash), and documents related to the reentry breakup over the Southwestern United States.
