No indications of notability, no references to reliable third party sources, I believe that this site does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. Jezhotwells (talk) 23:08, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
- Withdraw: Well done for finding the citations as I could not. I would like to withdraw this nomination. The article is excellently improved now. Jezhotwells (talk) 09:19, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

FYI: I posted a note on their forums, and Chris replied here with the following information:
| “ | Feel free to e-mail me at chrisbergin@nasaspaceflight.com - and just because we opted to use Wordpress as a CMS format does not mean we're a blog (and we're not a blog!) It simply proved to be a stable program to build the site on top of (and the site is actually professionally built). Here's a couple of articles right off the bat as examples of mainstream media accrediting our news content: New York Times: http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F01E6DF1230F935A35753C1A9609C8B63 USA Today: http://www.usatoday.com/tech/science/space/2007-05-28-nasa-roller-coaster-escape_N.htm We have a journalist at the NASA briefings. We have several mainstream journalists on site. I can request a server log screenshot for the visitor figures if required. |

- Keep On the basis of the information now supplied. Merge is inappropriate, since it is not part of NASA. Well sourced enough to stand on its own. I suggest the nom read the current article and decide if xe wants to withdraw the nomination. DGG (talk) 08:27, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
