Shuttle Breaks up on reentry – Here’s the report from Instapundit, with links to useful information. If you want to see footage of the reentry you can tune into CNN, but the analysis is pretty sparse at this point (they’re interviewing fools from Texas who claim to have seen strange things). Better off sticking to Instapundit if you want sober analysis. Forget, terrorism. This will wind up being the result of structural failure, and I’ll bet it is related to a failure of the heat tile system. Of course, trained investigators will have their work cut out for them. The Shuttle broke up at 200,000 feet while travelling 12,000 miles per hour, which means that the debris field is going to be very, very large.
The best thing for us to do is to pray for the crew and their family members. [Ernie the Attorney]
