Re: [ERPS] Orbital pix of STS-107

   You didn't have to get them down right away to save them, you only 
had to resupply them and though that would have been a technical 
challenge, it would have been doable until you could get them down 
safely. There have been all kinds of articles in the papers about 
warnings ignored. The technology was there, but there was a bad mind 
set. That really sucks big time.

Heck yeah, at least they would have had a chance to say goodbye to
family/friends if there was no chance of rescue.
Not to mention that the term 'reality TV' all of a sudden would take on a
whole new meaning. It would be like Apollo 13 all over again but potentially
for much longer.
I wonder if someone really halted a check in order to prevent bad news from
getting out?

The whole idea of "let's not look because there might be a real monster
under the bed" is simply pathological.  Denial cannot work.
