I'm unfamamiliar? Really? The Let's look at the facts. Have a look yourself(1). Manned Russian launch vehicles of that era were more dangeroys? No. Russia had zero fatalities since 1970. By contrast, the space shuttle accounts for the vast majority of fatalities in all of launch history, and the most dangerous launch system per launch. The design itself has been criticized as inherently dangerous compared to a traditional rocket+capsule.
Please consider, as I just wrote above, it would be nice if when people were confronted with information contrary to their worldviews, if they would please consider the evidence in front of them, instead of just shouting out their defiance as their cognitive bias wills them to. How else to stop people from being willfully stupid?
