The National Review Online has a touching entry on the disaster from a child's perspective. They also provide a link to the story of "Moon Landscape"--the drawing borne in a Holocaust-era dream of a different world that was destroyed on its way home.

Rounding up some of the new links from Instapundit:
* "The world will keep turning and the sky will stay firmly in place." A hopeful look forward from Samizdata.
* The speech that should have been on Happyfunpundit.
* Baseball Musings takes a moment away from baseball to write about the disaster as a friend of mission specialist Dave Brown.
* On his MSNBC blog, Glenn Reynolds provides his own commentary while drawing on sources across the blogosphere: "As we reevaluate our position in space, we should put more emphasis on the pioneering aspects of space exploration, and put an end to NASA’s bureaucratic “rice bowl” mentality. The American West was settled by pioneers, not bureaucrats. We’ll bury our dead. But then we must move on."

The flow of new information is definitely slowing; Larry King is interviewing a CNN anchor. (UPDATE: and a Texas witness whose story has been getting more polished over the course of the day as he repeats it to various CNN anchors. But he's still willing to follow leading questions from King like "It looked like it was much lower than 200,000 feet?" and "It appeared to be going faster than normal?")
