Talk:Discovery One
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The British Interplanetary Association is not fictional and it is not mentioned or featured in any way in the movie, so it would be nice to have a reference to the source of what are supposed to be comments from this association. AlainV 19:56, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)
The technical notes were written by Dr. Frederick Ordway in 1970. They first appeared in the BIA's journal (I'm not sure of the title) in that year. When I originally wrote this article in early 2001, I copied the technical notes from a set of fan-produced blueprints of Discovery produced in 1985. They too stated a copyright date of 1970 for the technical notes.
