Please allow me this space to offer my condolences. When I saw the video of the Mir fragments on CNN Friday morning, it really sunk in. I see what was probably the main modules flaming across the sky. For years it was a prized abode of space travelers - 104 of them. I imagine a glorious spacecraft when I think of Mir. When I saw those fireballs - it was exactly like I was watching a very close friend being killed and in the slow agony of death. A friend that offered so much. I shall miss my friend. P.S. CNN should be applauded for the extensive coverage of the death of Mir. It was like Mars Pathfinder all over again. Maybe the new management at CNN has become more space-friendly. I hope so. Usually, they are getting ready to sign off after the SRB's separate on Space Shuttle launches. ------------------------------ Jonathan T.
