Kosmos 954[edit]

Shouldn't Kosmos 954 be on this list? It survived reentry and spewed nuclear contamination across the ground. 70.49.124.157 (talk) 08:33, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't an especially large satellite. Notable, sure, but that's already addressed on the article's website.--RadioFan (talk) 15:33, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorting by mass[edit]

Sorting by mass does not work, since it uses alphabetical order so 10 -> 110 -> 20. Can somebody fix this? I can only fix it by padding with zeros on the left, but it would look strange, I think RubenGarciaHernandez (talk) 21:59, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

One way I have seen to solve this is use Template:Ntsh, but it means putting that template in every box to get the full effect. You put each number in a Ntsh template. Fotaun (talk) 14:04, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

{{ntsh|some number}}
