I guess they'd have to be...just look at the pictures. Nobody could survive that. And it's sort of upsetting that this had to happen with the first ever Israeli to go into space on board.[/QUOTE]Didn't the same sort of thing happen when the first women attempted to go into space? It's strange how things like this happen, and depressing.[/QUOTE]There have been many other 'firsts' in the shuttle program with no mishaps. One ohter interesting tidbit about this mission, I remember hearing when it launched this was originally slated to be an all female crew.
