[edit] Alan Bond link

Is the link to Alan Bond correct? It currently refers to the Australian enterpreneur, who seems unlikely to be the same person as the MD of Reaction Engines Ltd [1]

Appears to be fixed. Piet 13:22, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] would

All the "would" sentences are a bit annoying. Piet 08:55, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] was

What's with all the "was to be" statements? It isn't like Daedalus is some scrapped plan (like, for instance Blue Gemini), wasn't the speculation that it would be built around 2050, when we had advanced technology enough to build it? (DrZarkov 09:20, 8 June 2007 (UTC))

Yes you are probably right, the context should probably be changed to something like "The plan/project states", etc. --Hibernian 11:27, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] There it is!

This was one of those "We're going to do this" articles in kids science magazines that never happened, leaving us readers scratching our heads years later and wondering "whatever happened to..."--Pittsburghmuggle 11:45, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other Daedalus project(s)?

The first Google hit for "Daedalus Project" is http://www.nickyee.com/daedalus/. I found this page thinking Wikipedia would have information about that project. As far as I can tell with a quick glance through the site, it's a research project on the players of MMO games.

Curious about others' opinion on an article on the linked project. Other info:

(After finding the Nick Yee article on WP, perhaps at least a link to that page?) --BBM (talk) 01:51, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
