Talk:Comparison of small lift launch systems

Year of first launch
Hello, Could you add a "Year of first launch" column please? It would be much more useful than the actual "Status" value. Yann (talk) 18:06, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Citation needed
wouldn't it make sense to put the tag on the main article, rather than in this chart? --WhiteDragon (talk) 18:56, 14 July 2009 (UTCValues

Revised Values
SpaceX has changed its website to say the Falcon 1e can only lift 900 kg to LEO. Andrew Swallow (talk) 14:42, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Rockot - country of origin
It seems that Rockot is entierly of Russia-origin. The 51/49 ownership is only for the organization that sells the service, just like ILS, Starsem, etc. sell Proton and Soyuz launches to third parties. So, I suggest changing Rockot origin to Russia-only. Alinor (talk) 07:07, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

deleted?
How comes it the launch record column got deleted? Michael-Zero (talk) 16:12, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * There's a very long discussion of this issue in Talk:Comparison of super heavy lift launch systems. Please, come by and add to the discussion of the issue! Geoffrey.landis (talk) 03:03, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Updates
Recommend updates to Minotaur IV; should be 2/2 if you count previous sub-orbital and recent SBSS launch Taka2007 (talk) 00:15, 6 November 2010 (UTC) Also need to add Taurus II

X-37?
Just wondering what others think. Ought the X-37, with its very small 200+ kg payload, mentioned alongside its' launcher of course, fit into this comparison article somewhere?

It is clearly notable and, given its' alleged reusability, the X-37 is a pretty significant part of the launch system that this article on small-lift launch systems seeks to compare. While the overall payload of its first-stage launcher would not be substantially different than any other use of that launcher, surely the final payload(s) to LEO or GTO, and the extent/variance in their orbital altitudes/inclinations given the unique design, would be. So I'm not suggesting that the X-37 get a row in the table by itself, but perhaps the system with the X-37/Atlas V ought to be added. N2e (talk) 00:26, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe if it becomes such a system. Let's wait for its "wide deployment" (or whatever) - so far there have been only test flight. And I'm not sure that we should make separate rows for different payloads using the same launcher. Alinor (talk) 15:03, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
