Is the huge contrail we are seeing in So. CA from the shuttle?

It could be. A few years ago I watched one go overhead here in the Dallas area around 10:00 PM. The next morning, I could still see a contrail of sorts in the same place. Very high up... takes a while to dissipate.

This is a sad day for both the space program and America. :-(

I worked with the Columbia and it is hard to believe it and the astronauts are both gone.

Prayers going out to the Havilands. NOBODY deserves to go through what they have.

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars"
-Oscar Wilde

I offer my prayers for the friends and families of the victims. If not for Man's desire to explore the unknown, none of us would be here today. Now these brave men and women explore the TRUE Final Frontier, our Lord's Kingdom.

The Haviland's neice, Laurel Clark, was one of seven astronauts on board the space shuttle Columbia that broke apart in flames over Texas, Saturday, Feb. 1, 2003, killing all seven astronauts aboard.

Good Lord. What a tragedy.
