hang on all this information about takeoff (16 days ago) ..so they knew there was a problem, but didn't have a solution...?

My question is; "why does it take sooooooo many ppl to fly the shuttle?"

you ignorant fucks... anyone i talk to about this says something like "what? what space shuttle?" turn on a damned tv, and watch the news for once in your fucked up little lives. we live in the most connected generation in human history, and no one seems to care. you're all content to live in your little MTV bubble.

Get'em, Brett!!!

..well, that doesn't make sense? MTV is TV, so why turn teh tv on? and the internet has connected us (not TV) so we're here - and talking about what we want to know.. (but you don't ask or answer questions |O)

NE-way, i don't have a real TV (just vhs tuner pluged into my PC's tv-card) ..but my VHS has finally died after 10 years... so some ppl gotta substitute with the interweb!!

Like [ BBC.COM ]

You are the one being ignorant. People were only just waking up when it happened, myself included, and most of said people were too busy to be bothered at that time. Having the connections you speak of dosn't mean our parinoia keeps us focused on them.

And by the way, even if everybody WAS turned to MTV, they have a news division too.

Thats could be the case, but there are still many varibles to be found.

Why would the Ts want to blow it up neway. I heard that they sent the first Islamic into space...

Heh. I think you mean first ISRAELI, so of course, the terrorists WOULD want to blow it up even more.

But if they were responsible, it would have gone at the launchpad, not while coming back home. Nearly impossible the way it happened.

It only takes a couple. A pilot and a commander. The other people are there as backups and as mission specialists. They do experiments, space walks, go to the space station, etc. etc. It doesn't take all 7 to "fly" it. In fact, it could be flown via remote control, though not as reliably.

Well, I didn't know the true story that's all.

I think it expoded or it just fell apart but im very sure it blew up

WtF are you talking about?You mean the Shuttle which exploded over Texas?They are all dead

It's always tragic when something like this happens, but it is all down to human error, did someone not check the shuttle properly and miss the fatal error?

Its much more clear now!
The left wing was damaged at take off and there was nothing they could have dont about it. And the damaged left wing couldnt take the 3000*f of heat and the 12,000 mph of pressure that was pushed down on it and ripped apart. This then caused the shuttle to brake apart and incinerate in the earths atmosphere.
THEY WERE DEAD THE MOMENT THEY TOOK OFF

ii saw on the tv that a huge 10 foot chunk landed on the ground by a highway but it only look like a little piece like not even 5 feet i mean whats up with that bull shit

thats true, it it was human error for tha challenger disaster and apollo 13

Heres what I believe; The shuttle wing had hit debri on lift off, causing a dent in the wing, when reentering the atmosphere, the wing broke apart and it spun of coarse to its fate.

So if they knew, then there was NO option to rendezvous with the int. space station.

I konw it only takes a few ppl to "fly" the shuttle, ..but i always wondered "why soo many.." when a few could really do the work!? ..OR ROBOTIK!!
