This is a very well researched and written book, and a sad, ghastly
story.
It reminds me that humans have no purpose in space but to die.

That's a very jaundiced and negative view. Firstly, they weren't in
space when they died; they were at 46000 feet, which was below the
operational height of Concorde.
Dead is dead. Optimistically, they died instantly but probably not.
I would guess it must have been very much like being exposed to a nuclear
blast. So basically frazzled to death over several seconds. Not nice.
