The page had stated that Delta IVs launched from the "same site" as the Apollo 1 fire and Apollo 7, however, those launches were from SLC-34, just next door to 37B. The [[Apollo_1]] and [[Apollo_7] pages confirm this. I can also vouch from personal experience, having stood inside the launch ring on SLC-34 and seen a loaded booster from the parking lot at SLC-37. (sadly, that launch got scrubbed and I missed it. :() |

Corrected some incorrect data about the launch sites and spacecraft. -- Nick L.
I'm not sure if this can be used for anything, but there's a nice photo of the Delta IV's second-stage here: http://mediaarchive.ksc.nasa.gov/detail.cfm?mediaid=24253 --NeuronExMachina 02:15, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
I read that Boeing and Mitsubishi were developing a more powerful upper stage engine called MB-60 for use on the Delta IV. However, I have not seen any updates for several years. Does anyone know if this is still being developed?--Todd Kloos 04:23, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Capitalization of class names
The Boeing site (from the link on the main page) refers to each variant with a capitalized name (i.e. Medium or Heavy as opposed to medium or heavy) whenever they are reffered to. Because of this, and if no one objects, I'd like to go through and change all of the references to this format. I think it can be succesfully argued that these are all proper nouns as used, rather than simply adjectives. --Icelight 29 June 2005 15:25 (UTC)

SLC-37B not site of Apollo 1 or 7
