>I think they tried to keep the gory details of body parts getting exploded everywhere away from the public, they just couldn't because obviously there were humans remains scattered over a large area and people talk

The Columbia accident report had a section on "survivability aspects" which omitted certain more gory details, but what's in there is already quite gruesome to read.

stop the serious discussion you were supposed to insult me niggers

The cabin depressurized and since this was in the upper atmosphere, they would have likely fallen unconscious. As far as anyone knows anyway. Death would have been instantaneous on impact with the ocean.

Around whites never relax.

And they've never released photos of the recovered crew cabin. Some journalists tried unsuccessfully to get them under the Freedom of Information Act.

>Whether the crew members remained conscious long after the breakup is unknown, and largely depends on whether the detached crew cabin maintained pressure integrity. If it did not, the time of useful consciousness at that altitude is just a few seconds; the PEAPs supplied only unpressurized air, and hence would not have helped the crew to retain consciousness. If, on the other hand, the cabin was not depressurized or only slowly depressurizing, they may have been conscious for the entire fall until impact. Recovery of the cabin found that the middeck floor had not suffered buckling or tearing, as would result from a rapid decompression, thus providing some evidence that the depressurization may have not happened all at once.
From wiki. Like I said it seems from what I've read to be ambiguous enough that there was never official confirmation.

If the Columbia disaster had happened any later in history there would be pictures of the gore on the internet from people taking pictures with their smartphones.

I’m pretty sure that having your shuttle break down upon entering atmosphere simply means death. Literally every aspect about the whole thing killed them ranging from their heads being bashed in, their bodies enduring heavy G forces, no oxygen and impact with water

>The US Navy did not disclose the exact coordinates where the main debris field was found, but transmissions from Navy vessels could be easily picked up with radio receivers and Radio Shacks in the Cape Canaveral area were quickly sold out of shortwave radios during the two weeks following the disaster.

Was it still intact?

Thank god they didn't have them in the 70s either.

nightmare fuel desu

That's awful. The Lockerbie bombing also would have produced a lot of gore images.

It was described as "little more than a mass of twisted wires and metal". Navy divers refused to go inside the cabin and demanded it be dredged up onto ship deck instead because the thing was filled with tons of jagged metal pieces.

There are a ton of graphic stories about this crash from people who were there. Bodies cut in half, dead people who pissed and shit themselves, severed limbs, hoodlums looting jewelry and wallets from the dead. All of which would have been on LiveLeak had it happened in another time.

Tbh many airplane disasters have happened ever since including runway accidents with >70% fatality rates and very few pictures leak. I can only think of MH17 wreckage really which was mainly some dolls and bodyparts

>Axl Rose had originally wanted to use a photo of the Challenger exploding as the cover art for Appetite For Destruction. Being just a year after the shuttle disaster, Geffen refused this idea.

NASA got some guys called Dick and Greg off the street and didn't know their last names?

>very few pictures leak
Most airplane disasters don't happen in heavily populated areas though. This and Lockerbie happened right in residential areas where there were tons of normal people, not airport or recovery personnel. If these disasters happened now with the proliferation of smartphones you would absolutely be seeing pictures and video of the dead/gore.

I'm not a fan of Americans but this isn't something you make fun of, ever.

The PSA 182 crash happened in a suburban neighborhood and an extreme heat wave in SoCal had resulted in school being cancelled that day, so lots of kids were running around the area. That was why there were so many witnesses with graphic stories of the crash scene, whereas the AA 191 disaster a year later took place within the confines of O'Hare International Airport, so only emergency personnel would have seen the wreckage and bodies.

What the hell, this thread made me respect americans so much more. Well, their posters, at least.
Also, the flight 182's communication logs are fucking terrifying.

>whereas the AA 191 disaster a year later took place within the confines of O'Hare International Airport, so only emergency personnel would have seen the wreckage and bodies.

Their sense of professionalism kept them from saying much but one former CPD officer recalled that "We found the bodies of the captain and co-pilot in the debris. It took some extra effort to remove their remains from the control panel."

Alright, I understand.
Would like to add Concorde flight 4590 to the list. It killed 4 people on the ground and landed just right next to Paris

shut the fuck up ching chong

Grow up

Airline safety is a lot better nowadays, the equipment, radar tracking, communications, and everything else means fewer chances for accidents like PSA 182 from happening and there aren't as many ex-military airline pilots these days while in the 70s and whatnot most of them were WWII/Korea/Vietnam vets with a cowboy mindset that led them to take unnecessary risks--"I survived Japanese AA fire, commercial airline travel is child's play."

if i were in that ship and knew what would have happened i would have raped the women

Witnesses said they could see terrified people's faces pressed against the windows of the plane as it was going down.

in those types of vehicles you don't know what will happen until it's too late

I’m confused. Miracle on the Hudson only happened in 2009?
I have weird memories of watching an air crash investigation episode about it years earlier

Cause they can.

the blacks are always quirky, he probably ripped the seabelt said "ain't dying a virgin nigga" and raped her

Did they pick different genders and ethnic backgrounds on purpose btw? Looks like the cast of a 2010's film

McCauliff was there for publicity reasons (she was the teacher) but the rest were real astronauts.

Yes. They are NASA and a teacher.

The astronaut class of 1978 was the first one to have black and female astronauts.

yes

As usual, the Soviets had to play one-upmanship. They flew a black Cuban cosmonaut on a space station mission in 1980 and then a woman in 82 simply because they knew NASA had discovered diversity and didn't want to be left behind.

Are u actually from Papua new guinea?

It's an Australian employed there by a company or something. You must be new if you haven't seen him before.

There isn't a trans astronaut or an illegal immigrant so no it's not exactly like a 2010s movie.

They also wanted to look good to Africans who hadn't decided for capitalism yet.

And for all that only four Russian women have ever been in space, three of whom had personal connections to higher ups in the space program or military.

When were they shot down by aliums?

Ditto a Vietnamese guy who was thus the first Asian in space.

That's one of the coldest times of year here. Woah, it's almost as if the climate is hexed.

it was during ascension so double unlucky

apollo 1 was the saddest case because it was a systems test, they were already in the rocket for a few hours

the cabin was filled with o2 and a spark cooked them all alive

>a newspaper editorial in Pravda expressed condolences for the deaths of Grissom, White, and Chaffee, while excoriating the US space program for "neglecting safety in its reckless rush to the Moon and desire to safeguard capitalist profits."

Well they got their karma a few short months thereafter.

Nobody died in the Columbia crash, it was unmanned and a psyop

Reminder that the crew capsule survived the explosion. Probably unconscious though.
They were alive until they crashed into the ocean.

>basement dwellers and neets have no tact
Color me surprised. Not that it bothers me personally but I've seen so many people wantonly making fun of 9/11 and other events, and I've never seen Americans make fun of say the Moscow metro bombings or Japan air 123.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soyuz_1

Three months to be specific.

I thought AA191 hit a trailer park?

>and desire to safeguard capitalist profits

NASA is a public agency though. If anything they've been criticized for being a money sink by some.

Attached: 8;02.jpg (553x351, 26K)

That's some serious facial blindness right there.

woah uncanny

No but some debris hit a trailer park just outside the airport. The most frightening aspect of AA 191 was that there was a natural gas storage depot a little distance further away. If the plane had crashed there instead...

The Soviets actually had a similar deadly fire from combustion in an oxygen-rich test environment prior to ours. Had the information been public at the time, the Apollo 1 disaster would likely have been avoided.

Dejalo, son mala influencia. La ultima vez que entre a ese antro fue 2014 y no era mas que un nido de maricas y otakus.

>There had been many prior warnings of O-ring damage on Shuttle flights, the flight of Challenger on STS-8 in August 1983 had produced significant damage to one SRB that would have resulted in catastrophic failure had the burn time been just a few seconds longer.

>The Soviet state media (late summer 1983 in any case not being a high point in superpower relations) criticized NASA afterwards for its neglect of safety.

And once again they unwisely tempted the fates.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soyuz_7K-ST_No._16L

This was a Vostok simulator test in 1961 and it is unclear why they used pure oxygen since the actual spacecraft had a normal earth atmosphere.

Eww..
