 * I have updated the sources of the two images to their current locations.
 * The fifty cent piece was apparently there to illustrate a point Kennedy made about the cost of the effort. Removed.

Optional in case you want to take it higher than GA:
 * It is too short to be a FAC, and there is nowhere else for politics articles to go, so this is it.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  12:02, 20 March 2018 (UTC)


 * The citations need to be in numerical order
 * The impact on the Apollo Program is understated. From the books I have read, this was the main, driving factor in landing a man on the moon before the end of the decade. Then emphasizing more that many at NASA would say things similar to 'Kennedy said to land on the Moon, not land there three more times with science mission'. I know it says that in the article now, but I think it could be emphasized more.
 * Added a bit more.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:46, 20 March 2018 (UTC)


 * File:JFK_Tour_of_KSC_-_GPN-2000-000605.jpg could be used here, it is during his tour of KSC the previous day, as mentioned in the article. (other options File:Kennedy with von Braun.jpg, File:President John F. Kennedy and Dr. Wernher von Braun 1962.jpg, File:President Kennedy Tours Mercury Control Center (23730618550).jpg, though I am partial to the first one)
 * I am fond of File:President Kennedy, Vice President Johnson and Dr. von Braun at Redstone Airfield.jpg
 * "Young, Hugo; Silcock, Bryan; Dunn, Peter M. (1969). Journey to Tranquility. London: Jonathon Cape." - ISBN?
 * Doesn't have one. Too old.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  11:46, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

I will add more later.  Kees08  (Talk)   07:12, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Alright, I think that does it. If I kept staring at it I think I would find more 'issues', but I think they would be above GA level at that point. I watched the whole speech, very interesting, turns out I never listened to anything close to the whole speech before.  Kees08  (Talk)   07:42, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

GA, and if you want to take it to A-class, I could setup WP Spaceflight to try it and recruit some editors to review it.  Kees08  (Talk)   08:32, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, there are several good, PD images of the crowd located here that you may consider including.
