Example of lateral thinking when it matters...

We love this example of engineering excellence. In the incredible Apollo 13 mission the NASA team showed the world an example of how lateral thinking and deep dive brainstorming methods can deliver when it matters most.

Over 40 years on, 4c design uses these hands on techniques to solve some of the countries toughest engineering problems .

Where was the lateral thinking, here? Excellent linear problem solving, I agree - but lateral thinking?

"... and you, sir, are a steely-eyed missile man!"

Highest possible compliment within NASA. And well-earned!

w8, so what happened?

duct tape was all they really needed. The rest of the stuff was extraneous.

Brilliant example and top film. I always thought it was genius to come up with an idea like that. Lateral thinking :) Thanks.
