Possible Shuttle Conspiracy??

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but isn't it a little too convinent that the russians were able to put a rocket up to orbit no more than 24hours after the shuttle went boom? And full of supplies for the ISS no less. Doesn't it take them at least a month to prep a rocket for launch?? That seems a little too convinent in my book. Then again there may be a lot I am not seeing or knowing here too.

Now I'm not trying to be disrespectful in any way. Regardless of what happened, those 7 astronaughts are heros. I'm just trying to get some thoughts on this. For all I know this is just some dumb coincidence or it could be nothing at all and it just seems like something bad due to lack of data. I'm not going to say one way or another at this point because I don't have enough data yet to make up my mind 100%. But what I have seen does raise my curiousity a bit.

I don't know about the Russian rocket, but I am curious about something.

Most of the pieces that were on the news we black and charred from the explosion and fire falling to Earth. However, I only saw one pic where anything around the falling debris was burnt, dented, or anyway touched. It looked like the stuff just landed nicely and softly and was perfectly cool.

Why would that be? Can someone explain it to me? I guess I would have thought that the debris would have been very heavy (otherwise it would have burnt up) and probably would have made dents, impact craters, and even burn marks on the ground around the debris.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
