Space Shuttle Lost
Columbia lost on approach to landing; first Israeli astronaut lost.
1st February, 2003. 15.30 GMT
The space shuttle Columbia lost contact with mission control just before
its planned landing. Multiple trails in the sky over Texas suggest that
it has been lost on re-entry.
The chart for this suggests that a tragic accident has occured. Mars
on the MC and Uranus Ascending brings together the two classic significators
of accidents. They also pick up the charts of the USA and Israel.
This mission included the first Israeli astronaut and security had been
raised in tune with the current tense climate.
Mars and Uranus pick up the Israeli Mars and Mercury, while Saturn sits
on the 9th house cusp next to Uranus. What a graphic description of being
prevented from exploring in space. The new moon at 12 Aquarius is opposite
the Israeli Pluto; it seems this is a collective experience for the Israeli
people.
The American people will also feel this keenly as the USA moon is at
27 Aquarius (for the late afternoon, Sag rising chart).
NASA have admitted that there is no possiblility that the shuttle could
have made a controlled landing from the altitude it was last place at.
This altitude also eliminates the possibility of it being shot down.
More considerred comment will follow. My thoughts go out to the families
of the crew.

One of the most experienced members of the shuttle crew was born in India.
The new moon picks up the IC of the Indian chart for partition. They will
also feel this keenly.
The chart for Israeli legal independence places 14 Aquarius on the Asc, which
takes the full power of this morning's lunation.
