What about Scout B? No mention..? —Pengotalk ·contribs08:56, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"Scout (an acronym for Solid Controlled Orbital Utility Test system)"That sounds more like abackronym to me. Anybody got any sources?--ospalh (talk)17:09, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In the final section where they are talking about the Blue Scout, why a strange scientific notation or whatever for orbital distances, rather than the standard km/mi distances on all other rocket/satellite pages? Example:
16 600 miles
I have no idea what that even means, and no reference is given for the laypeople, such as myself.
-- Not sure how long ago you posted this. Sounds like these tests were sub-orbital meaning they didn't achieve an orbit, just went up and came back down. (I am basing this off how high they went and still carried a decent size payload to record stuff). Also the notation is probably just copied and pasted from the source. I see a lot of older papers and charts that think have a space instead of a comma for large numbers (1,000 vs 1 000). Makes it a little easier to see the magnitude of the number without using a comma.— Precedingunsigned comment added bySuperSonicFlow (talk •contribs)06:59, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
