The article says Gemini 3 was the ninth manned American flight, but the first in the Gemini series. There were only six manned Mercury flights, so Gemini 3 would have been the seventh. Were there other manned flights between Mercury and Gemini? I don't think so. The X-15 reference may be technically accurate, but confusing in context. --- BT, 0005 UTC 25 Aug 2005

I wrote the intro, but a long time ago. From memory, they do include X-15 flights. I did this because it saves the hassle of saying we can't include X-15 flights, and then having people say that we shouldn't include the suborbital Mercury flights then. Evil MonkeyHello 00:44, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
