Default STS-124 Discovery: Is it possible it will have a disintegration onreentry a'la Space Shuttle Columbia?

*clink of many glasses, 7 times 7 in honor of the Columbia astronauts,
followed by one for the Challenger astronauts*

you know how it goes.... garbage-in, garbage-out, and, when it is
stuck on top of the queue, last in, first out!

Yes, that is what we have to hope for. Although the Columbia
disintegration was not nearly as fantastic or well documented in
pictures as the Challenger explosion, if it were just a disintegration
of Discovery, that would well be worth the price of admission.

Many, myself included, have always suspected the lack of pictures from
the Columbia 'tragedy' showed that the govenment covered up as much
documentation as possible from that event. The government could not
do so nearly as well regarding the explosion of Challenger: that bird
did not fly very far from the nest, before it miraculously and
wonderously went all a-wiggle.

Yes, and there WAS a lot of damage done to the launchpad when
skytrain3 (discovery - challenger was skytrain1, and columbia was
skytrain2) went to the heavens - the most ever, so one has got to hope
we get to see another good show when discovery 'comes home'. It is
not like we did not pay for it, you know......

*clink of many glasses, even more now, to include the Discovery
astronauts*

"Quoth the raven: EVERMORE!"

"Hear! Hear! And no coverups this time!"

Only clueless people thought that. How could there be pictures?
Are there videos of every airline crash? No, because there isn't
always a camera in the area.

There was no vehicle damage, only pad damage.

There was no cover up. NASA showed pics when hardware was found. The
media showed pics and video

Just another internet asshole

When you find the hits, tell us which pictures show them.

now, if you could just post some more pics of the columbia
disintegration, supplied from nasa, that would be nice. yes, nasa has
them, but has engaged in a coverup to suppress the images... which are
public domain.
