Godspeed, Columbia STS-107
A sad day in the history of space flight, but in context tragedy and exploration go hand in hand, as witnessed throughout history. If you embrace the idea of exploration you also must embrace the tragedy that can and will accompany such activities.
These seven brave individuals were explorers of this time. My only hope is that this tragedy does not lead to an even more weakened NASA than currently stands.
Look at their faces, and think of them the next time you stare into the night sky.
