我趕快去看看TV..

看新聞畫面應該是空中解體了吧..因為分好幾塊飛走了..
好可憐~美國最近真是倒楣....
哥倫比亞號我記得出好幾次任務了.沒記錯太空梭是都是重複使用的..不知道是不是老化了..

但是一艘太空梭至少可以用100次以上吧~
那些太空人真是是有夠可憐~

讓我想起挑戰者號.......升空不久就...

1986年挑戰者號升空爆炸失事的調查,
是由已故物理學家費曼解開失事原因.
不知道這次會是如何調查呢.

NASA 的網站已經發表出簡短聲明如下:

NASA STATEMENT ON LOSS OF COMMUNICATIONS WITH COLUMBIA
美國航太總署針對哥倫比亞號失聯事件的聲明

A Space Shuttle contingency has been declared in Mission Control, Houston, as a result of the loss of communication with the Space Shuttle Columbia at approximately 9 a.m. EST Saturday as it descended toward a landing at the Kennedy Space Center, Fla. It was scheduled to touchdown at 9:16 a.m. EST.
休士頓任務指揮中心已證實一件太空梭意外事件, 哥倫比亞號太空梭在將要降落佛州甘迺迪太空中心的途中於美國東岸時間週六上午九點(台北時間周六晚上10點)失去聯絡. 太空梭預定在東岸時間9:16分降落.

Communication and tracking of the shuttle was lost at 9 a.m. EST at an altitude of about 203,000 feet in the area above north central Texas. At the time communications were lost. The shuttle was traveling approximately 12,500 miles per hour (Mach 18). No communication and tracking information were received in Mission Control after that time.
失去與太空梭的通訊與航跡時, 是在東岸時間上午9點, 當時高度為203000英呎
(60900公尺)位置在德州中北部的上空. 在失聯時, 太空梭時速約12500英哩(18馬赫, 也就是音速的18倍) 在之後, 任務控制中心就沒有再接到任何與太空梭的通訊與航跡資訊.

Search and rescue teams in the Dallas-Fort Worth and in portions of East Texas have been alerted. Any debris that is located in the area that may be related to the Space Shuttle contingency should be avoided and may be hazardous as a result of toxic propellants used aboard the shuttle. The location of any possible debris should immediately be reported to local authorities.
位於德州東部達拉斯的搜救小組已提出警告. 與這次太空梭意外事件有關的任何殘骸應避免去接觸, 因為可能具有毒性. 如發現殘骸, 應立刻向當地有關單位報告.

Flight controllers in Mission Control have secured all information, notes and data pertinent to today's entry and landing by Space Shuttle Columbia and continue to methodically proceed through contingency plans.
在任務控制中心的航管人員已保全所有與哥倫比亞號太空梭本日降落
有關的資訊, 記錄, 與資料. 並且仍照標準程序處理此意外事件.

News media covering the Space Shuttle should stay tuned to NASA Television, which is broadcast on AMC-2, transponder 9C, C-Band, located at 85 degrees West longitude. The frequency is 3880.0 MHz. Polarization is vertical and audio is monaural at 6.8 MHz. Reporters can also go to any NASA center newsroom to monitor the situation.

New information, including the times and locations of press briefings, will be posted to this page.
