==== Flammable materials in the cabin ====
The review board cited "many types and classes of combustible material" close to ignition sources. The NASA crew systems department had installed {{convert|34|sqft|m2}} of [[Hook-and-loop fastener|Velcro]] throughout the spacecraft, almost like carpeting. This Velcro was found to be flammable in a high-pressure 100% oxygen environment.<ref name="SpaceSafetyMag" /> Astronaut [[Buzz Aldrin]] states in his book ''Men From Earth'' that the flammable material had been removed per the crew's August 19 complaints and Joseph Shea's order, but was replaced before the August 26 delivery to Cape Kennedy.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Aldrin |first1=Buzz |title=Men From Earth |last2=McConnell |first2=Malcolm |date=1989 |publisher=Bantam Books |location=New York |page=178 |isbn=978-0-553-05374-6}}</ref>
