Corona Satellite Calibration Targets
[edit]- ... that two hundred and seventy two targets were constructed in and around Casa Grande, Arizona for satellite calibration during the Cold War?

- Comment: I would be supportive of using File:Casa Grande-Corona Satellite Calibration Target-Montgomery-Cornman-hatch-2.JPG if anyone thought it might add something, or I could try searching for imagery online, as it might be a good way to illustrate what these are.

User Ktr101 has just been banned from all Wikimedia sites. Taking a look at the nomination, the article is a borderline 1515 characters, but not adequately supported by reliable sources. In particular, the 272 number given in the hook is not sourced in the article, and an check of the source pages does not confirm that the actual number developed was 272. Under the circumstances, I see no alternative but to close the nomination as unsuccessful. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:41, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
