Sputnik 2[edit]

This article says Sputnik 2 failed to separate from launch vehicle. The Sputnik 2 article claims "Unlike Sputnik 1, Sputnik 2 was not designed to detach from the R-7 sustainer core, since Sputnik 1's core stage had demonstrated an acceptable orbital lifespan. This allowed the core's Tral D telemetry system to be used to transmit data, but would lead to speculation that Sputnik 2 had failed to separate." This is contradictory. 70.215.4.183 (talk) 08:25, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]


SUI[edit]

There are many records where the LSP (Launch Service Provider) is "SUI" which is linked wrongly to Switzerland but it is State University of Iowa. American manufacturer of rockets. --Szekihu (talk) 11:39, 25 May 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Szekihu (talkcontribs) 11:35, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
