I heard in the news about the shuttle. Tragic.
I hope this doesn't hold up the space program too much - it is already under-funded IMO.

At least NASA was more forthcoming with info this time. I guess they learned not to withhold
information too long with the Challenger.

By the way, did anyone catch the mis-information
that someone at NASA tried... it was stated that the pieces could be toxic and not to pick up and handle them. Some fable about fuel contamination. Imagine, 3000 or so degree heat on re-entry and some fool says that this fuel may still be there!
