I have renominated Range Safety Officer to be merged with Range safety. It was originally nominated in August by User:WDGraham. I believe it should be merged to the Range Safety article, since this article is about the range safety officer, who is part of the range safety system.-- Navy Blue84 19:57, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
This line " and the job of the RSO ends when the missile or vehicle moves out of range and is no longer a threat to any sea or land area (after completing First Stage Ascent)" is incorrect and the cited reference is a space shuttle only reference. The range tracks until orbital insertion and in some cases, also upon re-entry. I don't have references for these which is why I'm putting it into the talk page.

I went ahead and removed the Globalize tag, because I couldn't figure out how this article is being unfair to other nations' idea of range safety. If anyone has access to information about how other nations handle it, go ahead and add it. JustinTime55 ( talk) 16:30, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
Well, one year on after the above discussion, the article still would be much improved to have a perspective on how "range safety" with rocket launches is or is not handled in other nations beside the US. I get that we have a lot more sources on what's going on in the US; but clearly the tags on the article asking for improvement are, still yet, appropriate. N2e ( talk) 05:58, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
Some of the same concepts are used for research aircraft without a pilot aboard (remotely piloted or autonomous). A "range" is a controlled-access region used for hazardous testing (often of weapons systems). Range safety strives to contain the hazards to the region. 104.173.68.20 ( talk) 20:20, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
