Talk:Salyut 3

April 2007
Why does the Cosmos 557 article redirect to Salyut 3? They are not the same spacecraft. Something should be done to correct this. Andy120290 00:13, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Shooting down a satellite?
According to this Encyclopedia Astronautica page, following test firings "Cosmonauts have confirmed that a target satellite was destroyed in the test." For some reason I highly doubt that.. especially since it sounds like the firings took place after the last cosmonaut visited the station.. so how could they have "confirmed" this? I haven't found any other source that claims a satellite was shot down, I think it's a bit dubious, so I haven't included it in the article. Mlm42 (talk) 02:58, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Unmanned should be deprecated
It's past time that instances of the word "unmanned" be replaced with the generally accepted uncrewed or more colloquially crewless. I haven't made the edit because I'd like to raise the issue first. Official NASA usage these days is uncrewed, not sure what Roscosmos prefers these days. In any event Russia sent women into space first so it seems a no-brainer to me Vcpmartin (talk) 13:21, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Check out MOS:GNL. Our manual of style already calls for gender-neutral phrasing, at least for space programs. gobonobo  + c 19:43, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * thanks yes I forgot that was spelled out in the MOS. Anyway I see that someone else has made the change which I thoroughly endorse Vcpmartin (talk) 03:35, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
