Every space mission are dangerous.. And I would be very sure that NASA have doing everything in their power, to make this mission as safe as human possible... I for one are still amazed that it is posible to put humans to space, and back safe.. And I haveen following the Space Shuttle since the early 1980s... (Even that I was young then, and might not have been sure about all of the shuttle lunches).. My first "paper" in 1 grade was about the space shuttle.. Two pages, not bad for one who had just learned to write I would say :evilgrin: And now the Space Shuttle program are on their last leg - or at least on one of their last leg.. Admasing how long it have been.. I hope NASA are not wrecing them when the program is over.. The Space Shuttle system was far before their time..
