Line 9:
*Intro seems a bit verbose. Perhaps another picture of the Grasshopper - to illustrate the concept of a rocket landing - would help?
**I very much agree. Have been endeavoring to find a Wiki-licensable photo of Grasshopper flying for 18 months now. See extensive discussion on Talk page. [[User:Huntster]], who is both very wiki-photo knowledgeable and an Admin on the English Wikipedia tells us that there simply are not any wiki-allowable images that anyone has yet found of Grasshopper in flight. (although there are lots of good Youtube videos released by the company). I've wondered whether perhaps a fair use criteria might work, but editors wise in the wiki-photo fu have told me no dice.

*"occur at a velocity of approximately" - km/s would be adequate here, I think.
**I would tend to agree, but what is there is a result of Talk page consensus; moreover, the original source only gives the velocities in Mach numbers. And generally, in spaceflight related articles, we give velocities in both SI units and in English measurment units for a global audience. Do you think the GA criteria would trump the Talk page consensus? I would be happy to revisit with the previous discussants. [[User:N2e|N2e]] ([[User talk:N2e|talk]]) 01:25, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
