Re: OT: Shuttle Breaks Up During Re-Entry
Truely, this is a horrible tragedy.
I must say, though, that, I do not feel putting the space program on hiatus is a good idea either. IIRC When the whole Challenger fiasco occured, the space program was put on hold for a while, not good IMHO.
Yes, this was a HORRIBLE accident, and yes, some time should be taken for us to mourn those brave men and women who died, in the name of science and furthering our understanding of the world around us, but, we should not pause the entire space program.
When one falls off a horse, does one simply give up, or does one get back on the horse, and, try again?
