Talk:Stennis Space Center

2004
I think page could use an image of the test stands. This might be a good one: http://www.ssc.nasa.gov/~sirs/photos/propulsion/low/88-072-2.jpg

i'm shocked you left wing nutcase liberals haven't flipped out about the Stennis name....that jerk was the democrat that ran on a segregation platform....you limp wristed kids need to be slapped in the face for your arrogant ignorance
 * Didn't someone already incorporate it? --Ardonik 01:48, Jul 17, 2004 (UTC)

This article could use more original research; as it stands now, it's basically a wikified form of the SSC's history page. --Ardonik 03:01, Jul 17, 2004 (UTC)


 * Do you want me to take a short ride over to the facility and get some interviews then? :P --TIB (talk) 04:11, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)
 * If you could actually do that, it would be outstanding. But heck, I'd be satisfied with any information you could glean that wasn't from their website.  :-)  --[[User:Ardonik|Ardonik(talk)]] 21:29, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)

More early history
In addition to the October 2012 NASA source currently used to source the early history of the formation of the MTF, which has become Stennis SC, I just learned that the September 2015 issue of the same publication has more early history, including the closing of the school, the effect of Hurricane Betsy, the condemnation of some 700 homes and buildings, etc. Here's the link: Sep 2015 Lagniappe, NASA.

Requested move 21 March 2020

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Moved as proposed. BD2412 T 17:33, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

John C. Stennis Space Center → Stennis Space Center – Firstly, per Wikipedia's policy on consistent article titles, harmonising with titles for other articles about NASA facilities named after people; Armstrong Flight Research Center, Glenn Research Center, Johnson Space Center, Kennedy Space Center, and Marshall Space Flight Center. Secondly, per Wikipedia's policy on commonly recognisable names, as "Stennis Space Center" is used far more often than "John C. Stennis Space Center", with the former returning 562,000 results on Google while the latter returns 113,000 results. Also notable is the fact that over a thousand people have visited this article via the existing Stennis Space Center redirect in the past 90 days, with an average of 12 readers a day. Throughout 2019 and early 2020, third party sources alike have exclusively used "Stennis Space Center". The recent suspension of operations at Stennis amid the COVID pandemic also illustrates well the name's widespread usage among third party sources. –  PhilipTerryGraham (talk &middot;&#32;articles &middot;&#32;reviews) 13:26, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per nom and the NASA web site. Will keep watch on the discussion to check if others have a differing view. Randy Kryn (talk) 18:58, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per well-researched nom. --Soumyabrata wash your hands to protect from coronavirus 05:17, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Artemis Mission
I was a little surprised to see that the current (2021) usage of the Stennis Space Center facility is not mentioned in this article at length. The new Artemis Moon Rocket is being tested at this facility and it is the largest rocket to date being tested here and it is one of the highest profile rockets. There is a lot of info that needs to be gathered before this section can be added but it should be noted. NedTown5000 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 20:33, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
