Where did you get that number?


One of the discovery channel programs on the soviet space program, which I
have not independently verified.

James Oberg gives a pretty detailed account of Soviet failures and myths. I
have not been able to find an actual "number" in his on-line stuff (buy the
books, I guess), but the implication is that some rumors of USSR space
deaths are overblown... and he also states that some is simply not known.

Now since he often appears on Discovery, so that "100" figure may be his (or
NOT), but his chapter at:
http://www.jamesoberg.com/usd10.html
does not seem to imply a number anywhere near that.

Thanks.... in the index on his "Russian" page, I had skipped right over that
one to "Uncovering Soviet Disasters; Chapter on Dead Cosmonauts", several
items below. Thanks again.
