Worry over SRBs
I am most concerned with the SRBs. If one of these fails not only is
the Shuttle finished so is Ares 1. I believe that one should be able to shut down a booster if problems are detected. This happened in one of the Gemini missions. Also, failures in solids develop too quickly. IMHO solids are fine for cargo launchers but crew should launch on liquids only.
