Major Edit[edit]

I am modifying the page to bring it up to the same standard as List of spaceflights (2006), by installing the new templates and format. Please do not edit while the {{inuse}} tag is in place. --GW_Simulations_{|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail} 21:08, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Italian space program[edit]

In 1964, Italy launched successfully its first domestic-built satellite from the San Marco platform with an American-built Scout X-4 rocket. I think this should be mentioned as an Italian launch in the launch list, and the chart edited accordingly. Any suggestion/remark? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.64.44.211 (talk) 18:51, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed changes.[edit]

Perhaps the "partial failure" columns should be removed from the tables? The way I see it, any mission that doesn't end in utter catastrophe has succeeded in some respect, therefore I propose the "partial failure" columns be replaced with "partial success" instead...?

Additionally, the "Accidentally achieved" column in the "by orbit" section strikes me as confusing, how does one accidentally achieve LEO? Perhaps add a paragraph for clarification of these two unusual incidents? Mr. Cuckoo (talk) 19:05, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
