See Talk:Timeline of transportation technology --- I removed several satellites which are covered on that list and I think don't represent advances in rocket technology. I wonder if Pioneer 10 should go too. Rmhermen 02:18, Dec 13, 2003 (UTC)
Steam rocket is not the real rocket. It just revolve around its bearing and could not fly. So it is not proper to categorize this thing as a rocket. Steam rocket is only a fanciful name of an ancient Steam Engine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.120.237.31 ( talk) 05:14, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
I'd have to recommend removing many mentions of spaceflight in this article. Shouldn't the launching of Sputnik on an ICBM-based rocket be enough here? There is no need to start mentioning private spaceships, ion drives (not rockets), US launches if Russia did it first, ISS-related items, etc. I feel that about two-thirds of the entries after 1957 should be removed. Thoughts? MattFromOntario ( talk) 02:21, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

The timeline gives the year of first launch as 1956. /info/en/?search=PGM-17_Thor#Phase_I_test_launches gives the first launch as 1957, however. 1956 is when engine tests commenced. NelC ( talk) 23:43, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
