Compare with this tragedy - it was none of the crew member's fault.
State-of-the-art tech, but unfortunately not flawless: the Columbia space shuttle disintegrated during re-entry during its 28th mission (mission STS-107). Science evolves.
Last moments on board, with crew member Laurel Clark remaining rather talkative and upbeat (Feb 1, 2003). She films the flames outside and queries what those are supposed to be. Pilots reassure her that it might be some plasma. But subsequently they notice that the flames surrounding the cockpit intensify: "This is amazing, it's really getting, uh, fairly bright out there" and "Yep, yeah, you definitely don't want to be outside now". A few seconds or minutes later they all perished. Heart-breaking.
