Not to mention Apollo 1 and Challenger.

Spaceflight, even near-space, is an extremely dangerous enterprise. I don't see how it can be otherwise so long as we have manned capsules sitting on top of hundreds of thousands of pounds of oxidizer and fuel.


We don't know if this crash is in anyway space related. If the 747 carrying the shuttle crashes, that's not because space flight is a dangerous enterprise.
