I have added Dennis Quaid who played astronaut Gordon Cooper in, The Right Stuff, to this project. I thought somehow adding factual portrayals would be appropriate. If this is somewhere we do not want to go let me know and I will remove him.

Thank you

I think it is way off base. YMMV

Ok

That being said technically Bezos and Branson aren't astronauts either.

As I see it. This project is about real Astronauts and Cosmonauts. Like Gordon Cooper. It is not for us to rewrite history. The group of Astronauts and Cosmonauts really knows who is who.

Gordon Cooper is a member of small group of Astronauts and Cosmonauts.

Or in other words professional space travelers.

Private User,

Jeroen is right about the purpose of this project.

Please make sure that you have removed Dennis Quaid from this project.

I removed it as soon as Gaye responded.

I responded that same day 2 weeks ago with OK.

The profile was removed moments later.

I asked to make sure although I should have before hand.

The only reason it came to mind was because he was portraying Gordon Cooper.

The fact that the "The Right Stuff" projected a renewed sense of, courage, wonder and purpose into the early space program. Seemed it might have possible relevance.

I wasn't intending to add Jeff Bezos, Ooops! i mean Gil Gerard. ;)

I must add though Richard Branson has shown in the past he could have possibly had the right stuff.

I understand where your coming from and I assumed it to be the basic purpose.

What about a (rocket/aeronautical engineers and technicians etc. project), with whom it would not have been possible? Is there one? Sound doable to anyone else?

Private User,

I don't think that Sir Richard Branson should be put into this project.

Kevin

I don't either but someone already did. My point was if it were he or Bezos, at least Branson has the iron balls

I think that the most of us agree that Branson, Bezos and Dennis Quad should be removed from the project at the moment they are added.

As I stated before Quaid was removed 2 weeks ago.
A day after he was added per request.
We can move on from him.

Bezos and Branson are removed from this project, they are more playing astronauts then are famous because they are astronauts.

But also they basically only made it to the outer atmosphere. Not outer space. I agree they’re just pretenders. Although I would’ve expected more out of Branson. But Bezos is a wimp.
