Yeah...There's been big talk of the first Israeli to go into space these last few months...Everyone was happy, and proud of the mission taking place...Last night, when they took off, the space shuttle blew up...6 Americans, and 1 Israeli...All dead...Very tragic... :'(

yes indeed this is sad...
"One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. "Which road do I take?" she asked. "Where do you want to go?" was his response. "I don't know," Alice answered. "Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

Shit happens. The last time an accident like this happened was in '86 or something. It's sad for the family and stuff, but hey mistakes are human.

Cause I don't care where I belong no more
What we share or not I will ignore
And I won't waste my time fitting in
Cause I don't think contrast is a sin
No, it's not a sin

Yeah, horrible tragedy.  The only solice is that they all knew the risks, every astronaut knows that they're attempting something crazy.  I feel bad for their families, though; it's gonna be a really emotional time, and I would imagine all of them had children.

Well, there is risk involved with everything you do in life...Going into space isn't such a huge risk...A lot more people succeded than failed, when traveling to space...PEaCe

Man...

Im devistated. I've loved following the space program for some time now. Stuff like this shouldn't happen to good people.

I wish people would stop saying that there were 5 Americans, 1 Indian, and one Isreali on board. 7 heros died today. It's a huge risk that they took, but it seems like space travel was a ordinary thing now-a-days. People just took it for granted. I hope this is a wakeup call. My thoughts and prayers go out to the widows, families, and chilidren that lost somebody today.

Yeah it's a horrible tradgedy.

Still, I dont think space travel is that dangerous.

Compare it to train crashes, plane crashes and car crashes over the same weekend and I guess the space program would qualify for being one of the safest means of transport.

Its a sad day for america and the progress of mankind. Long live the space program.
SO MANY PEOPLE THINK THEY KNOW
