Space snakes[edit]

Why on earth (no pun intended) is there no mention of Story Musgrave's claims to have seen snake-like beings floating in space? This is an absolutely unacceptable omission. Xmoogle (talk) 12:53, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Six vs seven degrees[edit]

The article only lists six degrees: A B.S. in mathematics and statistics from Syracuse University in 1958, an M.B.A. in operations analysis and computer programming from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1959, a B.A. in chemistry from Marietta College in 1960, an M.D. degree from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1964, an M.S. in physiology and biophysics from the University of Kentucky, and an M.A. in literature from the University of Houston–Clear Lake in 1987.

I did a quick google, there's a variety of webpages that cite 7 degrees, but only one cites the seventh as "psychology", but no dates or alma mater given. Having the article list seven degrees but not list the seventh degree is rather contradictory, and the person who changed it to seven cited a personal dinner, so while my preference would be to edit the opening paragraph to be six until a reference to the seventh degree is found, I also feel that that would be regarded a bit poorly as I don't have an account, and it feels like the kind of petty thing that might end up in an edit war. 104.157.110.71 (talk) 21:47, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
