If you dont like it, deal with it. The only person I see making a problem here is you. Maybe if you gave it a chance it would work out. Shouldnt have been moved in the first place ? Well, I disagree, it was in the wrong forum, had nothing to do with MoHAA, and was moved, simple as that.

I dunno what happened to the shuttle. Was is sabotaged? Possibly, but highly unlikely. I think the heat shields just came off by means of technoligal failure, not sabotage. God bless the people that died, but I don't think it was planned.

nasa officials said that foam that came from one of the boosters hit the left wing on liftoff. all throughout the 15 day mission nasa was testing and prodding the left wing area to determine if the shuttle had compromised the astronauts safety..they went ahead with the re-entry and 6 minutes before disintigration they had 3 seperate sensors go off in the left wing area. the have all but ruled terrorism out at this point. they are pretty sure the debris that hit the left wing at take off was the culprit.

thats what the chicago tribune said on frontpage special edition today

It wasn't terrorism. There isn't a weapon in anyone's military arsenal, including ours, that could hit a target at that altitude and speed. Even ICBM's couldn't do it. They travel too low and too slow in comparison.

I think NASA's record is simply amazing. Consider the space shuttles are THE most complex machines ever made by man with over 2,000,000 distinct components. They are old. The Columbia first flew in 1981. Most cars on the road aren't 22 years old. The remaining shuttles are expected to perform their duties for another 10-15 years as we develop the next generation of shuttle.

It's a shame we as a nation grow so accustomed to hearing about shuttle missions we barely pay attention. I must admit I'm one of those people. It takes a tragedy such as this to wake us up to the dangers involved. It's unfortunate there was a loss of life. Considering the factors involved, I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. I hold those involved in the space program in the highest regard. Two incidents in 15 years or so... that's a damn good record IMO.

To those that lost their lives on the Space Shuttle Columbia: Thank you for your bravery. Thank you for your sacrifice's, both in life and death. Without people like you we as a species would not reach out and achieve things thought impossible. May you rest in peace and may your families and friends find comfort in knowing that you're all heros.

while it was, and is, sad the people did make a choice. They wanted a rocket strapped to thier asses and fully knew what might happen. I feel for the families but they did know this was a very real possibilty.
