Boisjoly, “The Challenger Disaster: Moral Responsibility and the Working Engineer”

1. Do you think Boisjoly should have blown the whistle the night before launch? How could he have done so? Would it have been impermissible, permissible, or obligatory? Explain.

3. How does Boisjoly recommend that the working engineer accomplish their moral responsibility “to defend the truth and expose any questionable practice that may lead to an unsafe product?”
