They've also found body parts and apparently a flight suit patch - which completely confuses me as I would think these things would have burned up when everything was ripping apart.

playa · 02-01-2003, 11:26 PM

i am pretty shocked that it all didn't disintergrate

marcu5 · 02-01-2003, 11:27 PM

damn..

marcu5 · 02-01-2003, 11:27 PM

i wonder down the line will people try to auction parts of the shuttle on ebay

Fletch XXX · 02-01-2003, 11:28 PM

i bet they already have had some auctions.

Mr.Fiction · 02-01-2003, 11:31 PM

Sad picture.

biftycom · 02-01-2003, 11:31 PM

Yeah...quite honestly I was shocked when I came across it in their gallery at msn.

I just wasn't expecting it.

That was my first thought as well, but given the way the shuttle broke apart it does seem possible that the crew could have been thrown from it.

Sarah_Jayne · 02-02-2003, 06:38 AM

it does seem strange but I guess when you think of plane crashes (which I know are different) there is often little bits of stuff found that you would have thought would have burned up.

"thats a nice pic"

... some people will never learn when sarcasm isn´t wanted ...

ytcracker · 02-02-2003, 06:45 AM

all i can pray for is that they went quick and painlessly during reentry. i hope they figure out the root of the problem as well, but accidents do happen. brave souls.

stanton · 02-02-2003, 06:45 AM

there is no sarcasm

it is just strange that picture was made with such a precision and quality

smells like conspiracy to me

Just because it takes a tragedy for some to even notice we still have a space program doesn't mean that everyone has absolutely no interets in the "mundane," "routine," "what's the big deal...it's just another shuttle mission" approach that your "conspiracy" theory implies. There are space program enthusiasts all over the world. There was so much video footage captured...so many still photos taken because people that have interest in the space program KNOW when the shuttle will be overhead and want to capture images/video of it becuase it is special in their experience of life.

I bet you that most of the people that provided video of the tragedy could also show you dozens of other tapes of more "mundane," "routine," "what's the big deal..." shuttle missions in the past that resulted in a "boring" safe touchdown at Kennedy. Do you guys want to see those tapes? Are you and the media clamoring to view those? No. So obviously when someone does want to see it there must be a conspiracy involved.

Rediculous.

I lived in Daytona beach for many years. Every night launch we would go down to Ponce Inlet and hang out on the Jetty and watch the night-sky to the south ignite in the most awesome glow of orange and red the moment the SRB's were lit for launch. When the shuttle takes off it takes a north-eastern track crossing right in front of our eyes off shore. When the SRB's detach they are picked up off the shore of Daytona (a LONG ways off shore). When the shuttle returns to earth we hear the sonic booms that nearly knock out windows and shake your hungover ass right out of bed and onto the floor.

Yeah...some people actually have interest in the fact that we put people into space. A REGULAR, ONGOING interest that isn't fueled by tragedy. It's newsworthy to MANY just having the shuttle go up and return to earth. The fact that there was a catastrophic incedent didn't suddenly create interest in the space shuttle for EVERYONE. Just those who need to theorize and form conspiracy theories.

And about the pic...it was taken by a photographer for a newspaper. His editor probably said, "get your ass out there and get our subscribers and readers a kick-ass picture of the shuttle streaking across the sky as it comes home." Not because he knew it was going to result in tragedy but because he knows that there is a HUGE market for the photo by people who just love the fact that we put men and women into space and bring them back home. A SAFE/SUCCESSFUL shuttle mission sells newspapers and ads for television broadcasts too.

Even if the crew were thrown from the shuttle they would still have disintegrated..... they were travelling at 12000 MPH at a height of 207,000 feet!

17,000 mph in a glider going in a straight line would be a very peaceful experience. Even with speed scrubbing down to 12,500 mph, the split second that the capsule no longer had wings I am certain the sudden tumbling of the capsule resulted in G-Forces that no one can sustain. Ignore the fireball. If, hypothetically, the safety capsule was thrown out of the way of harm of the fireball, the tumbling surely would have resulted in instant death.

Imagine if this were possible: Here's a baseball being pitched and it's a knuckle-ball. You could ride on that thing all the way to the catchers mitt, no worries. Now imagine the same pitch being thrown as a curveball with the incredible spinning rotation. Could you possibly hang on and have your head still on your shoulders? A capsule without wings suddenly experiencing friction of the air moving past it 12,500 mph likely had a simlar affect as pulling the cord on a top and setting it spinning at 12,000 RPM.

I apologize for the graphic imagery. It is not my intent to upset anyone...just trying to draw everyone a picture.

OMG I bet that helmet would be worth a lot of money. Probably millions if sold to a private collector. 'Course it would be illegal

BV · 02-02-2003, 08:50 AM

I took this pic on launch day. Weird how shit happens.

Is that all you can think about?

Oh boy...

LadyMischief · 02-02-2003, 09:10 AM

I'm really not all that surprised that they are finding not only stuff, but body parts. You consider how fast the space shuttle was going when it reentered the atmosphere. Think about it like this.. Take a chip bag and rip it apart.. Some of the chips get crushed in your hands, others fall straight to the ground. Some stuff burned up, while yet other stuff fell straight down as the shuttle ripped up.

I feel the most for the families who were only minutes away from seeing their loved ones again, only to find out it all ended in tragedy after all.
