Default Re: OT: Shuttle Breaks Up During Re-Entry

about the russian space program...
back in the bad old days a lot of cosmonauts died, and no one ever heard about it, because of the censorship. Russian rockets, though good today, were not so good in the early years, and many unsung cosmonauts died without many people knowing.
