Arthur C. Clarke, in a mid-50s book on the exploration of the moon, called
such space accidents, "The Price."

As an engineer and an SF writer and a human being, I stand ready to go on the
next one, and I'm sure I stand in line behind thousands of others who would go.

Regardless of the smug arguments of the vultures on the networks the last two
days, machines can never do in space what humans can--give part of the race
a chance to live there.  I am for getting all of our eggs out of one basket.
