Prayers to all and their families.
NASA has scheduled a news conference for 11:30 AM ET.
Prepare for plenty of stupid questions from the media and others.

Lord God, guide those who search the cause of this disaster. Guide those who minister to families and friends. Guide those who dream of the stars. Guide those whose eternal destiny is in Your hands. In Christ's name we pray, Amen.
