Three words you don't often hear together: Successful, crash, and dive.

I love how there's a shuttle flight in an hour and there was nothing on the site about it today. It's awesome that India was able to do this, but we should really give some props to the crew of STS-126.

@hofmann: Seriously. I just watched it take off on NASA TV, but for all the outside coverage, you'd think the only think happening today was someone sweeping the steps of KSC. At least another mention of the pee-recycling machine should be in order.

Why call it a "suicide nosedive"? It's not like it's going to bring that much excitement into it.

Maybe they call it that so when they fail, they can say "we planned on it".

@kevinyung89:
I was actually thinking that it would be a good idea for all nations that are planning to enter the space race to start off with a mission that's designed to produce a crash or an explosion or something. That way they have a much greater chance of success!

@meirelle, Commander Closet Commie: Agreed. Competition between India and China promises to drastically reduce the cost of space travel.
