Judging by the video of multiple contrails, it does not look good. May the crew and their families be in all of our thoughts...

Remember that these people died doing something they believed in with all their hearts. This was their life's work, and at least they died doing something they believed in, and doing something that benefits humanity and the sciences.
At least it was not a senseless waste of life, such as we've become so accustomed to of late. At least they were doing what they wanted to do their whole damned lives long. No matter how routine the rest of us think spaceflight is (yes, even spacebuffs like you and me, we must admit, not just the 'masses'). They knew how much danger they were in all journey long. And they accepted it bravely.
