Last Paragraph

I'm new at this, but the bottom paragraph of this article reads like a newspaper editorial and should by cleaned up with more neutral language. The citations are also in the paragraph instead of cited at the bottom. Basically, someone should check this out... BorisLobb 19:18, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've cleaned up the blatant POV in the segment in question. Comments are much appreciated. Sincerely, Nick L. 18:32, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good! BorisLobb 18:13, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the partial statement from this section claiming the accident at the Sodium Reactor Experiment was "the first meltdown in the history nuclear power". The first nuclear reactor meltdown occurred at EBR-1 at INEL, Idaho in 1955 (See Wikipedia). —Preceding unsigned comment added by BluegillTriplePrime (talk • contribs) 22:20, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is the following a suitable reference for Rocketdyne building the ISS main power system? http://www.boeing.com/defense-space/space/spacestation/systems/eps.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.162.79.185 (talk) 10:23, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

At first glance, I don't see why not - companies generally try to get such information correct. Do you have reason to believe it's not accurate? - BilCat (talk) 18:25, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rocketdyne has a rich history that must be longer than a couple of paragraphs. I'm not a qualified source for Rocketdyne history. I can't insert my incomplete knowledge and hope that a qualified persons would would correct that information. It would be good to see information of all the programs Rocketdyne was part. Much very old classified information must have been released for publication by this time. I'm thinking of events back into the pre-1970's. There should be retires that might be willing to contribute to such a historical effort. There are so many topics that the problem I think will be how to boil the subjects down in to a reasonably compact form. Having lived through that important era I know there is a contribution to current events. That contribution can't happen unless Prat & Whitney Rocketdyne opens the flood gates to share and preserve its all important history. While your at this, if you decide to do this, ask P & W Rocketdyne to make a donation to Wikipedia. --Johnswolter (talk) 18:16, 24 January 2012 (UTC) Looks like much of this has been added, or could be added in the Aerojet merged entity page.TwinkleVain (talk) 09:57, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I worked for Rocketdyne for many years, but anytime I attempt to contribute, your smart-ass young editior BilCat cuts me off and accuses me of "origin research". This has happened enough times that I no longer feel like attempting to contribute and I can only wonder how Wikipedia ever hopes to gain credibility. If this problem is ever resolved, please let me know.Magneticlifeform (talk) 17:51, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
