As to the origin of the phrase, the following story was given, citing an email by Apollo 13 FDO Flight Controller Jerry Bostick:〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ORIGIN OF APOLLO 13 QUOTE:"FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION." )〕 Kranz chose it as the title of his 2000 autobiography because he liked the way the line reflected the attitude of mission control. In the book, he states, "a creed that we (Mission Control Center ) all lived by: 'Failure is not an option'", though the book does not indicate that the phrase is apocryphal. ==References== * The History Channel, 2003 * Kranz, Gene, ''Failure Is Not An Option,'' Berkley Publishing, 2000, ISBN 0-425-17987-7 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Failure Is Not an Option」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
