I realize that it was on final descent over this country, but at a future time, we may have a spacecraft that fails over another portion of the world, and we may not be able to recover much at all.
I'm sure that the families of the astronauts are glad that they are at least able to regain their loved ones' remains.

With the way the orbit inclinations are...it is either this country...the water...or some parts of old Mexico. Not much options.

...at least able to regain their loved ones' remains. ...and without it being broadcast live on TV.
I had a thought yesterday that it may come to light that certain debris perhaps containing significant remains were found, reported, and swiftly recovered without anyone who was involved bothering (or avoiding) to alert the media.
And I was glad for that.
