You know that many people are terrified of flying. However, they have no problem travelling by car, even though we all know that, statistically, planes are much safer than cars. Well… welcome to the base rate neglect. Our brain ignoring boring statistics and overvaluing vivid stories. That’s it. We constantly hear statistics about road accidents. But… When there is an aviation tragedy… well… you know what happens. Vivid memories. We like to believe we are purely rational beings making...
My son is now obsessed with rockets. He wants to go to the moon. Good for him. We’ll get there very soon… again. If you don’t know the story of Apollo 13, you should pay attention… because it has lessons for you too. NASA did not become NASA because everything went perfectly. Quite the opposite.
