Portal:Spaceflight/About

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Spaceflight Portal provides a comprehensive overview of Wikipedia resources related to spaceflight, frequently updated "news" sections linking to articles related to current events and easy access to selections of the best Wikipedia articles within the scope of spaceflight-related topics. In addition, portions of the material from the Spaceflight Portal are transcluded onto the more broadly scoped Space Portal.

Overview of resources

The Spaceflight Portal includes several mechanisms that allow readers to get a sense of what Wikipedia offers related to spaceflight.

Current events

The Spaceflight Portal provides frequently updated information about both recent and upcoming current events. A spaceflight news section reports on recent launches and other spaceflight-related occurrences of interest to readers, and a next scheduled launch section [abandoned] provides information about expected future events.

The "next scheduled launch" information is directly transcluded into the "upcoming spaceflight launches" of the Space Portal.
