While Brazil does not (yet) had an astronaut aboard the ISS, a Shuttle or a Soyuz vehicle, Brazilian C&T resources to the space program have been ever-growing. We have micro-gravity labs in the university, and we all find being part ( albeit a small one ) in the ISS program a great thing.

It is definetively a mankind thing - aboard an american vehicle. We deeply mourn the loss of the Columbia crew as it affects space exploration as a whole.

( And EIRobotics86, your tribute image above reads "Chalenger" instead of Columbia - now that was some 17 years ago... )
