I know I seem (and probably am) fairly insensitive, I have a point to make. Can someone please explain Why a death is more important than a life? A failed mission more than a success?
Why do we mourn a tragedy more than we celebrate a job well done?
There has been more to NASA than just spectacular failure. Should we not celebrate the crews of spectacular successes just as much as the people who ended up on the wrong side of probability?
I'm not saying the people weren't brave, or that their deaths weren't a shame. However, every other astronaut has been just as willing to accept the same, sometimes greater, risks for the same goals. Remember, their mission work was already done.
