NASA's report is posted online at:

https://www.nasa.gov/columbia/home/index.html

This site is currently quite busy, and you may have
to come back to it later to get your download.
The report includes some spectacular photos and
is worth going through a little trouble to see it.

You can also find the report at the FOXnews website
but when I downloaded it there, part of it would not
come up.
 
This file (or set of files) is something like 10 megs on the news websites. At the NASA site, the report is more like 30 megs.

If you are not wanting to download this much material through a dial-up modem (like I have at home), post your name here. I will burn this report onto CD for the first two dozen who want it that way.
 
Yeah it must be very busy as I can't download them. Typically these sites lighten up after midnight :)
 
Well, I never could save the target to disk but immediately got the download directly (medium res). After scanning it quickly, I realize that I'll eventually want a hardcopy. I just cant read 200+ pages online in the detail it deserves. This has tons of background info on the Shuttle and NASA, and as an ex-NASA contractor really would like to read and digest this. For those not so inclined to read it, its worth the download just for the pics and the graphics!

Thanks for the link powder!
