Really?  Are there any survivors?  What went wrong?

Very Tragic

*edit*
Aww man, no wonder this happened.  For one thing the shuttle had been in use for 22 years, the oldest shuttle in NASA.  Another thing was that a piece of foam came off the fuel tank and hit the wing, causing damage.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

*sigh*

Terrorism was actually the first thing to pop into my head, but really I dont believe that was the case in this.  The shuttle was like 22 years old.  It was an accident waiting to happen.  A car that you ride around in that is 22 years old is bound to break down on you.  Same as the shuttle.

lolz i got the feeling pecker is starting to dislike me ahh well :twisted:

im just stating what i said... cause its getting annoying... how about i bring up the canadian soldiers that the halfwit americans accidently bombed... or all the civilian casualties in checkoslovakia (or whatever its name is) or any other country that america has made war with..

what america has lost... is nothing compared to what america has destroyed

its simply the media making it look like america is the big victim here..

did u ever stop and think why america was targeted for terroism... its because the american goverment is helping the jewish people steal the islamic land... the islams were there first.. and after world war 2.. the other countries (America, and England mainly) decided to give the jews part of the  "holy land" and just handed over alot of the muslims land to the jews not to mention.. the americans are still helping the jews

now if my holy land waz stolen from my ass ide be a lil fanatical to....

and no.. im not muslim... nor jewish

Kenshin, its a very real possibility in this day and age.  Especially when there's an Israeli on the flight that blows up, that kind of shines a light of suspicion on it...

The worse thing out of all this is that the spaceship contained the first isreali astraunaut and that the peace between America and Israel isnt as stable as we would all want it to be and this could yet be another factor that would lead Israel to have another hostage thingny or even worse... *sigh* stupid Americains learn how to build spaceships  :P meh well malarkey happens, sure it is sad but whatcha gonna do about it?

Yes, I hate the media with a passion and would like to see it destroyed in a firey plasma-like explosion.  Not the people, just the technology used to broadcast news.
