Merger

[edit]

I would suggest that, perNaming Conventions, we mergeNASA Shuttle Landing Facility intoShuttle Landing Facility rather than the other way around. - more common usage, unneccisary disambiguation --|User Page |Talk|Contribs |E-mail19:26, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate wasPAGE MOVED per reasonable and well-argued request, previous request was unopposed. If somebody objects, let them say so and we can talk about it then. -GTBacchus(talk)00:24, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

[edit]

NASA Shuttle Landing FacilityShuttle Landing FacilityWP:NC states that the most common form should be used. This is clearlyShuttle Landing Facility not NASA Shuttle Landing Facility. If you look at the pages that link here, then, excluding those that link throughTemplate:Merritt Island (edit |talk |history |links |watch |logs), most link toShuttle Landing Facility. A quick Google search confirms this - 655 results for the phraseNASA shuttle landing facility[1] vs 92,100 forshuttle landing facility[2]. Sadly,Shuttle Landing Facility has a history, so I cannot move this myself. Note: my last request for this move was unopposed, however it was never implemented. |20:47, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question About Shuttles

[edit]

How do they get the shuttles back to KSC?—The precedingunsigned comment was added by76.16.151.77 (talk)20:45, 10 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Runway naming

[edit]

Isn't it a bit strange that the runway is 15 and 33? shouldn't it be 15 and 30-31, or 16-17 and 33? 09:34, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

What is strange about it? The runway is aligned northwest/southeast (330 degrees northwest/150 degrees southeast).Fl29518:58, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Gator tanning facility"

[edit]

Sounds like a hoax to me. --20%00:04, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While I don't see an online reference for the specific term, the style sounds consistent with NASA worker nicknames and should be non-controversial. It had to be called the "gator <something> facility". Undeveloped areas of KSC are a wildlife refuge, including literally thousands of alligators. There is indeed a well-documented problem with clearing alligators off the Shuttle Landing Facility runway before a shuttle landing. When I've visited Central Florida, I noticed that alligators and lightning rods have something in common: once you notice one of them, you notice that they'reeverywhere.Ikluft (talk)02:15, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I don't doubt the nickname as such, I just haven't found evidence that alligators regularly stay on the actual runway (as opposed to the surroundings). But that seems fine now ;-) Thanks. --20%23:45, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

City Location

[edit]

It says in Merrit Island, but merrit island is located more south of it. i think it is more in Titusville because the visitor center is south of that and it is in titusville.Parker1297 (talk)16:13, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What year

[edit]

What year did it open? 1992?99.151.253.124 (talk)19:07, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

First landing?

[edit]

Just curious about one thing--I know STS-41B was the first orbital mission to land at the Shuttle Landing Facility, but was this also the first time an Orbiter landed there? Did NASA do any kind of aproach and landing test before using the facility "for real?"--Craigkbryant (talk)20:20, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Gator tanning facility"

[edit]

I have added a "failed verification" tag to the claim that the facility is also known as the "gator tanning facility." If we can't find a source for this, I think it should be removed.CapitalSasha ~talk00:40, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
