"Are they suspecting some kind of missle shootdown? "You would need a full up and operating ICBM inerception system to do that. We are the closest to that. Nobody else has even a glimmer of that capability. This is a catastrophic failure of a shuttle system.
I predict a Russian Soyuz will be launched within days to remove the ISS crew. Don't look for any shuttle flights for a long time. The review boards will be endless.

The review boards will be endless.I'm sure the Congressional one (and you know there will be one) will be dragged out until summer of next year, just in time for the next elections. There are some scumbags who would do it.
