[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ula logo.gif

Image:Ula logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 16:27, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Section Suggested for deletion

"Boeing is seeking a contract to produce launch vehicles for NASA's Ares I program that will be built to replace the aging shuttle program. The launching systems would be based on the Delta IV Rocket's cryogenic launch system.[3]" It was true that Boeing was seeking this contract. However, The contracts to design and build the ARES I rocket have already been let. The upper stage will be designed and built by Lockheed martin and the lower stage will be built by ATK Thikol. The statement is outdated and no longer relavent. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Poorpoorbuddy (talkcontribs) 19:42, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Yea, that should be removed. But your comment on the upper stage in not correct. NASA is designing the Ares I upper stage and Boeing won the contract to build it last fall. The use of the RS-68 was really supposed to be for the larger Ares IV anyway. -Fnlayson (talk) 19:58, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
