Now noted in article, with footnote. NASA replaced the Galileo with another Convair CV-990, dubbed "Galileo II", but it wasn't used much, as the Kuiper Airborne Observatory was operational by then. —QuicksilverT@01:12, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Can we get some more information about the earlier Galileo Observatory? Such as date of crash, number of people in crew, etc.? CFLeon (talk) 05:14, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'm fascinated by this idea - does anyone have any idea how they managed to obtain clear images from a moving, vibtrating aircraft? I think that would be a useful addition to the article. 217.155.152.138 (talk) 09:03, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have just modified 2 external links on Kuiper Airborne Observatory. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

The article currently contains the excerpt "The KAO flew mostly out of Moffett Field, but also flew out of New Zealand, Australia, American Samoa, Panama, Japan, Guam, Brazil, Ecuador, Chile, Houston (Texas), and Hawaii." This lists entire countries alongside territories and specific states of America. This is inconsistent. If country-level precision is good enough, we should use it consistently. If state-level precision is needed for any one item in the list (in this case Texas, America) then the same precision applies to all the other items in the list (which provinces and territories in NZ? Which states and territories in Australia? Which districts in Panama? Which prefectures in Japan? Which states in Brazil? Which provinces in Ecuador? Which regions in Chile?)
It's like an article claiming "Carbon can be found in watermelons, grapefruit, oranges and the seeds from apples, the skin of apples, the stalk of apples and the flesh of apples" instead of simply saying "Carbon can be found in watermelons, grapefruit, oranges and apples". 49.195.120.227 (talk) 04:11, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
