Buzz Aldrin (1 of the

Buzz Aldrin (1 of the 3 austronauts in the Apollo 11 crew that first stepped on the Moon) wrote an editorial in the NY Times today about Fear and Flying.

Columbia's accident is a horrible tragedy and there are no words to describe the horror and sadness. But instead I feel better if i think about how happy these 7 people were in their 16 day mission. How they could realize their dream. How they contributed to science and space exploration. I watched the footage CNN showed of their inflight interviews and satellite conversations and they all looked so happy and content and proud. Especially Ramon, and Chawla, and i am glad that those images are stuck in my brain. If i think about Columbia, that's what comes to mind, and it always will.
