The mars climate orbiter formerly the mars surveyor 98


The Mars Climate Orbiter (formerly the Mars Surveyor '98 Orbiter) was launched by NASA on December 11, 1998. However, on September 23, 1999, NASA loss contact with the orbiter and it was reported it crashed onto the surface of Mars. Using the internet or any other resource, research this accident and provide a brief description of what happened. Is there a lessons learn here for LSC manager? Can you envision a similar type situation occurring for, say, a large project cargo shipment from a country that is standardized on the metric system to the US?
