I hope they went quickly, unlike the people on the Challenger, that fell to their deaths. I know there's an escape pod on there, but I don't know if they saw this coming :(

This is another sad day :cry:

It is indeed very sad. And just a few days after the challenger anniversary. It really, reall sucks. It probably wouldn't have happened if Nasa would get any sort of steady funding though. I really don't think that 20+ year old shuttle should have been in use. Sorry for the little rant, it is quite sad, but I think it's a pretty valid point to mention.

I know this is true, so I just can't turn on tv right now in case they actually show them rejoicing like they did on 9/11 :evil: Need to study anyways, but it's rather hard. I watched till 1:15 pm EST thinking they were going to say something at 1, but I just got tired of waiting. I was REALLY hoping that they got out, but I'm guessing whatever went wrong happened so quick, they didn't have a chance to react. :cry:

The only solace is they died doing what they loved. I too hope they felt no pain. And at mach 18, with the outside temp being about 3500 degrees farenheit, they likely didn't feel much for long.

Mourn.

They were returning from heaven, but God called them back again.

They got closer to my sun god and Eza's moon goddess than we ever will physically. Safe return to the cycle of life to the ones that rode the fire in the sky.

As long as we keep the space program going, we honor them. I do not believe that anyone who would take the risk of space flight would want the space program to halt on their account.

They were shot into space, and made it all the way to heaven...
