Absolutely awful; the video is difficult to watch. I can't believe how the families must feel.
And Isreal was so proud of their astronaut. Wow, what a sad day.
Wow, this is tragic on so many levels.
So was it entering our atmosphere or was it taking off?

NASA is struggling as it is, imagine the blow an incident like this is to them.
Why couldn't this happen to an 'Nsync kid.
Ilan Ramon was a national hero before he even took part in this shuttle launch. He's been involved with a lot of major military actions, attacks against Iraq, all that. This is really terrible.Quote:

This is seriously horrible. I cant believe it. I first read about it on CNN.com and I looked at it in disbelief.
This is truly a sad moment for us all. It really opens your eyes in that there are no guarantees in life, and you have to cherish each moment to its fullest. R.I.P to the brave souls aboard the shuttle.
