      Burning up on re entry is a tough way to make hero status.

      Q. You know why the Soviets stopped sending up dogs into space?
      A. Because they kept putting their heads out the window!

      A Russian Space Shuttle crashed into a cemetery early this
      afternoon. Search and rescue workers have
      recovered 300 bodies so far and expect that number to climb as digging
      continues into the night.

      Q. Why did the supply ship crash into the Russian space station?

      A. Because objects in MIR are closer than they appear.

      Many moons ago (pun intended) Horizon made a three part documentary series on the Soviet space programme from post war to the early 90s. It was called 'Red Star In Orbit' and it's well worth watching. I'd post it on Youtube, but I'm scared of being sued by the BBC!

      After reading about the Soviet sacrifices to win the battles of Stalingrad and Berlin I am not even going to question Russia being the fatherland of heroes

      Well said cowboy...millions of Russians died defending Mother Russia. Actually WWII was mostly about their struggle against Germany. Russian patriotism is unexcelled...too bad their leaders are such gangsters.
